Pros
Fairly high salary, could work from home, didn't have to work that hard
Cons
Former CEO was a maniac. Total con artist who would just pitch crap ideas to whomever he could to get investments that he could then use to keep the company going
Pros
You got decent benefits. I guess if you can deal with the crap pay, that's a good thing. I worked with some genuinely good people who were a lot of fun to work with.
Cons
Where do I start. The pay is crap. Unless you're C-level, you won't make a whole lot. If you do manage to get a promotion you won't be compensated for it, but you will get is a meaningless title and a whole lot of expectations to do whatever it is your superiors want at the drop of hat or on your time off (including running errands for theCEO's daughter). Then there's the nepotism, the CEO (who is a load of work) let's his very young and incredibly inexperienced daughter, run major aspects of a company that's supposed to be on the verge of greatness (it isn't and they will most likely never achieve it with the current upper level management). Do you like communicating with your fellow employees to get things done in an effective manner? Well you won't find that here. You'll have one person telling you to do something and then at the same time other managers will randomly start demanding to see where something is because the other manager didn't bother to communicate or plan with the other managers about a course of action or the details of a project. The product is crap and their customers are constantly upsold on things it can't do, and after awhile they start canceling but are still charged usually. Do you like job security? There's none of that here. Layoffs and firings are very common. My contacts list within the company was like a graveyard by the time I left. There's a whole lot more I could say to persuade you not to work here, but some one will probably tell people they need to write a bunch of positive reviews about how Cinsay is a face paced company with great opportunities and this will get buried. Also, if you're an investor or potential investor, you're going to lose a lot of money sinking money into this place, but hey the CEO will get another Lamborghini with your money!
Pros
Many are offered the opportunity to work from home. Company provides all necessary implements to work from home. Hours are steady. Bosses are okay, but not the best.
Cons
The challenges of working here. Hmm. Well, let's start with the fact that there is NO COMMUNICATION. I could get a call from one person asking for a specific thing, send it over, and then a call or email or Skype from another person, angry about the fact that they haven't received this specific thing yet - when, in fact, it was already sent. Layoffs - or RIFs, - are COMMON, very common. If you don't get in good with the bosses quickly, you'll lose your job within 6 months. People get fired and laid off constantly. There one day, gone the next. The pay is crap. I worked full-time and never even got my benefits until 6 months after I started, and a reduction in pay when they decided to make me salary. The customers are angry, they are not getting what they want, and the employees just wanna pass the buck of the angry customer off to someone else. Drama. Cinsay spends more than it makes, the CEO and his daughter are running that company into the ground. These customers sign up for this service and that service, and, a few weeks later, that service isn't being offered anymore, and the customers are still paying for it! There are more customers calling to cancel than there are to sign up. People don't win with Cinsay. The people, the people were great. I loved my coworkers, and then, without warning, without advance notice, without even a reason, we were all laid off with crap severance and BS excuses. It's a pathetic place to work. It's a start-up company relying on investors and sponsors to pay the bills, spending $1,000,000/month in SALARIES (that's absurd for a start-up company!) and running out of fuel.
