Pros

When working with the employees the are great, they share information they really appreciate the information you impart to them.

Cons

Management has no idea what-so-ever as to what is going on. They complain about things they are actually the root cause of. When you have a discussioin about a timeline which has a bearing on the conversation, they have no idea of what has happened when. They ask you a question, you answer it and then they accuse you of being defensive.

Pros

Fantastic work environment, it is a very collaborative environment that thrives on team work. Work environment is very positive, productive, and friendly.

Cons

It is difficult to commute between offices for meetings. Not as much interaction between various teams within the company as there could be.
