Ventajas

Desventajas
Extreme turnover. Extremely poor morale. Ridiculous work weeks -- Sometimes over 300 hours worked per month. I've even seen worse. Hourly pay is extremely poor due to frequent and required unpaid overtime. Lots of effort is simply wasted due to poor processes. Cliques are extremely powerful - Company runs like a popularity contest. Denial of Vacation and Holiday Benefits (probably illegal). Pathetic Bonuses are in the $10 - $50 range. ("Hey family, sorry that I've worked 200 overtime hours in the past two months, but I can almost buy one dinner at Subway with the bonus I earned.")
