Pros

Good co-workers and that's about it.

Cons

The company performs layoffs regularly, seemingly every quarter. No work-life balance. Low pay. Promises are made and never kept. It never seems like new positions are added. People are laid off regularly. Upper management bullies people into decisions. More work for less pay. Incredibly questionable decisions and statements are made by management.
