Pros

Excellent benefits package. Decent salary not the best in the industry but no the worst. Very flexible sometimes you can work from home if you need to. Company has a good reputation and is well known, everyone loves Snoopy.

Cons

A small group of employees located in the larger offices get all the special project assignments that help lead to advancement. No clear path is established for employee growth. Reviews are set up so you always end up at a satisfactory level no matter how great you perform.

Pros

Good support for new people managers were very helpful and always available

Cons

Micromanage every second of your time; have to put in a request to go to the bathroom and wait for someone to grant it Expect you to put exceptions to your time after your shift ends on your own time Half hour lunch by the time I brought my lunch or heated my leftovers and went to the bathroom. I barely had time to wolf it down. Unrealistic call times Systems are horrible and crashing all the time expect you to be in at least 15 minutes before your shift unpaid to set up all the programs on your computer
