"Unfortunately my experience was very negative, if you have no other options consider working for this company. They will be looking for a type A personality, unfortunately they will also play up the aggressive side of type A's as opposed to the competitive side. If you want the job make sure you mention you can handle stress well and think of examples (typical interview question since if is a high-stress environment). Although team-work is not actually encouraged it is supposed to be one of the core-values and it will be to your advantage to mention you are a team player and give specific examples."

Work hours were horrible, they started with 7 AM to 5 PM with some mandatory Saturdays then changed to 7:30 AM to 5 PM with some mandatory Saturdays. The working environment was hostile.
