We remain competitive by paying less than our competitors.

We have no time to train you and you'll have to introduce yourself to your co-workers.
- Seeking Enthusiastic, Fun, Hard Working People
...who still live with their parents and won't mind our internship-level salaries.

We don't pay enough to expect that you'll dress up; well, a couple of the real daring guys wear ear rings.

We all listen to nutty motivational tapes.
- Must Be Deadline Oriented
You'll be six months behind schedule on your first day.

Some time each night and some time each weekend.

Anyone in the office can boss you around.

We have no quality control.

Unless you wasted those four years studying something useless like philosophy or English.

Management communicates, you listen, figure out what they want, and then do it.

A merry heart doeth good
like a medicine...
(Prov 17:22)
