Pros

Flexible schedule, I really enjoy the ability to work from home when I need to. Great team to work with around the State and country! Exciting and fun projects to work on. Career opportunities - They want their employees to better themselves! Best of all they have confidence that I am able to do new and challenging tasks, which gives me more confidence and the desire to work outside my comfort zone!

Cons

I have not encountered any cons yet!

Pros

Smaller company, with good geographic and market coverage in the western US

Cons

Bit of a weird cult culture. Very commodity-based consulting, rather than selling services based on value. Not very employee oriented.

Sorry to hear you had a bad experience with DOWL. We wish you nothing but the best going forward and hope you find happiness and peace. And all of us in management agree that Lynn Bruno is a talented leader with much to offer the company.
