I need an adult!

Pros

Very casual work environment. Lots of meetings to check up on your progress toward hitting your targets.

Cons

Most of the people there are in their early to mid 20's - managers included. Lack of maturity and professionalism was a bit of a problem. I didn't really realize how much I'd miss those things until they were absent from the office. When problems arose, we didn't need a friend, we needed a leader - and there was none to be found.

Bad place to work

Pros

The benefits were nice, and the amount of PTO, but I'm sure all that's changed by now.

Cons

Paid people less than they were worth. Fired a ton of people during the holidays. "Stress testing" the equipment with no regard for the people working on them.
