Pros

Decent Salary for the region, ability to telecommute, unlimited sick days. Share Purchase Plan is solid.

Anti-Social atmosphere, could work days without takling to anyone. Benefits are average at best. No efficient training. Overload of information. General lack of guidance. Worked here for several months and nobody knows what I am supposed to be doing month to month. Lack of feedback or encouragement...
