      "This is a pretty great place to work, with a very laidback work culture, lots of flexibility and great benefits, like PTO, the best health insurance ever, the winter break off, tuition assistance, 35 hour work week, etc. I would say the most negative thing is how entitled people start to get after working here (and that it's hard to transition to jobs in the real world)"
