Pros

Realistically, there are no good reasons to work here.

Cons

The managers here are weak and spineless and have sold their conscience and soul over to the CEO, who micro- manages almost everything. The managers in the Finance department are particularly weak, malicious , and hypocritical. All the mangers are ever so fearful of Phil that they literally tremble in front of him. What a culture!!

Pros

The one Pro is that you get a pay check. Albeit, it is a poor one but beggars can’t be choosey.

Cons

How can I enumerate the many cons……? Let’s start. 1) Equipment. Every single PO needs to be approved by the Owner. Are you f ing kidding me. The equipment you use is outdated. If your PC dies you need to wait for days to get an old one that nobody wants to use. Ok, sorry, you get a reconfigured hard drive.The customer need support help us get that to them. 2) You are forced to sign statements that you are not eligible for overtime because you are salaried. 3) This is truly a white collar sweat shop. The chosen few get to go on a cruise with the boss for two weeks. Not a problem, by that time your soul is sold to the devil. So what do you care? 4) Phil, You the owner, tells everyone at the company party that maybe you are being shielded by those underneath him. DUH???????? Holy Shitz… 5) Phil, the money that you are getting is coming from THE SWEAT, THE WORK, from those underneath you. 6) Please look at the medical plan you are offering us… REALLY. PHIL, we are Jewish, from the same blood and race, and we are denied the manna that falls from heaven…… 7) The company has grown 200%; damn…..Share the wealth. 8) For the last five years I have been to the company party, yet not another potato has been added to my plate in the mean time you give speech,Jjerry plays his horn, and Ria sings. Thank you, 9) If you want to suffer, (I will say this, if you want to you will learn) this is the place you want to be. 10) I rather be on unemployment. 11) In all fairness, if you as the owner and expect me to touch and kiss the scroll that you placed on the entrance of our work place, I am ashamed.

Pros

There sure aren't many pros to working here. ...Nice neighborhood and public building areas ...Good bunch of workers at CGS who try hard, deserve better, and should set their sights somewhere else.

Cons

...Employees taken for granted and treated like a step above wayward children. No appreciation, no niceties, no fun. No concept of worker satisfaction = greater production = more profit. ...Uncaring atmosphere. Hospitalized or grieving employees don't get as much as a card. ...Employees generally morbidly unhappy. ...Poor insurance coverage which is expensive for employees. ...No casual days, no comp time, no working from home, no summer hours, no employee trust. ...It's always and forever about the bottom line. ...Over promise, under deliver to customers - half my job is apologizing for missing a deadline. ...Antiquated computers and systems. I guess I always expected a tech company to have technology. ...Company will not pay for skills training or continued learning. Something else one would think a tech company would support thoroughly. ...Company generally misses the point like Glassdoor and other reviews having to be earned rather than solicited.
