      Pros

      Job changes often, which makes it seem interesting, co-workers are great

      Cons

      Morale is really low where I'm at, management has made promises to employees that they don't keep, you are cleaning up crap all day long, constantly being threatened with loss of job if work isn't done, on-call, lack of performance reviews and constructive criticism, no career advancement or career path.

      Pros

      My department has been great for needing personal time and most of the people are great.

      Cons

      CEO does not care about employees or rewarding said employees. the process have changed becoming more time consuming with no added benefit to employee or the company. No raise will be provided for 2 years but executive upper management get their toys and bonuses.

      Lots of cuts, but not in the right area

      Pros

      Lucky enough to have a manager that allows for a good work-life balance, but that is not the case for everyone. Owner is open to trying new things/systems etc...

      Cons

      Benefits are not good and getting worse. Taking away a lot of incentives for employees to make up for the major loss from a huge acquisition. Doesn't seem fair.
