Pros

Fairly central location close to Downtown.

Cons

Upon hiring I was pleasantly surprised that there were more women at this job than I had seen at other tech companies I had worked at. I enjoyed having less of a male dominated environment, but quickly realized most were put in positions to promote their company like tradeshow girls and given questionable responsibilities. Today I was told by a former coworker who is still with them that there has been predatory behavior by management in the workplace. I hope this serves as caution to anyone looking into the company. Apart from this being a huge elephant in the room, I wouldn't recommend working here as many are overloaded with unpaid OT, weekends, and bad direction.

While the staff does assist at some events, this is primarily for technical support, not "tradeshow girls" as you represented. We are proud of being an equal opportunity company and are thrilled with having a diverse staff. We are technology company where women are 30% of our staff. Which is nearly twice that of our industry.
