Pros

Stable work Hourly rate is competitive Paid Training Pretty decent benefits package Certifications are all done on site which makes getting work going a breeze

Cons

Once certified, management must then decide to put you to work in your specific area. (Forklift for example.) This took 3 weeks for me, and all the while I was paid a lower rate to do sorting work. Management is not very good at communicating with employees. I just stopped asking where to work, and assumed I was a sorter even though I was hired to drive a forklift. Finally management got back with me about the forklift position.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
