Good company, poor management

Business Outlook

Pros

Work hours - as a salaried employee you are only required to work 37.5hr/week and you have some flexibility to come in early (7:30/8am) and leave relatively early (4pm) or a typical 9am-5pm. Company is family owned and small enough that you will interact with all levels entry - VP's. Bigelow offers tuition reimbursement.

Cons

Limited room for growth. Manager level is very hit or miss, some are internal hires that generally know a lot, but may not be the best at managing people/projects/teams. Other managers are hired from outside and are practically useless.
