      Great Environment

      Pros

      Hostgator is continuously trying to improve the work environment. Once a week we get a free massage, ice cream, beer, and wine. Lunch is served for all shifts, and the management is always there to help you.

      Cons

      The employee benefits could be a bit better, but that comes as companies evolve. Hopefully hostgator will ditch the health coverage they have now for something better.

      Awesome Potential

      Pros

      HostGator is an awesome place to work, and has been for several years now. The management definitely tries to listen and provide a fun and enjoyable work environment. There's a lot to be said for having a job I don't dread getting up to go, and actually look forward to being at the office.

      Cons

      There's a lot of employees at HG where this is their first "real" job. Sometimes that can get a bit frustrating since they base work life in comparison to HighSchool and get upset when they actually have to do real work.

      Great Company, Great People

      Pros

      HostGator is a great company to work for. While working at HostGator.com, I was able to boost my abilities with Linux by performing in both their Linux Support and their Migrations departments. These departments dealt heavily with not only their server support (Linux Support), but also with customer code, and application support (Migrations). This company is a great place to go for any aspiring administrator, as you can easily learn more than what you would think starting out at a hosting company. There are multiple departments where anyone with technical ability can easily excel. Their monitoring department, for example, is a great way to boost skill with regards to load and I/O issues, and anyone who would like to know more about a particular aspect of systems administration could quickly change departments and learn the aspects they were interested in.

      Cons

      One of the downsides I can say is that the company needs a bit more inter-department communication. Sometimes there are some issues from management in departments, and changes may be "pushed out" without many employees being aware. Additionally, even though you may be skilled in a particular field, if you are in a particular position, you will be limited to that position. That was one of the issues I had at HostGator.com, as I was able to help out every department, however I was responsible for a particular department and it's work.
