Pros

It's a small company with strong technology out of Rockford, IL with a tight senior management team. They hire a lot of support, customer support staff and sales people. They are very metrics driven.

Cons

The turn over within the sales team and support staff is high even for a software vendor. The local staff are very much "trapped" as they are based in Rockford - not the best place to find the next software company to work from. Job Mobility is impossible within that region - the management understands this and that can be detrimental to the employee. They are very metrics driven.

Pros

None. You'd be fascinated how they treat you. Take this as a warning and join somewhere else

Cons

1.) Instability among the teams. 2.) No proper vision for leadership. 3.) Treat employees like disposable asset. 4.) Pay is way below the market. 5.) CEO doesn't know what he is upto. 6.) Another evil corporate.

Pros

Cleo offered generous benefits, a flexible PTO policy, competitive perks, a livable salary, and some great company parties.

Cons

Management was in constant disarray, with people switching positions and leaving with no warning. Engineering operated as a loose anarchy. Supervisors were occupied with a never ending list of busy work from ever changing upper management, so there was little (if any) oversight of in progress work. Good luck getting help from a supervisor; it was easier to find a coworker who wasn't putting out a fire than deal with ignored messages and short-tempered responses. After the addition of an overseas engineering office, product quality became an afterthought. Producing somewhat functional code quickly enough to close a sale with the top priority. Projects were often abandoned midstream. More than one was abandoned within the final stretch. The great company parties are a pro, but the results could be a con. No expense was spared to put on big shows and lavish events multiple times a year. Unexplained employee purges continued for "budgetary reasons". Upward mobility in the company is only possible if you're willing to sacrifice your current job duties to pursue the position you'd like.
