      Decent Place, if you dont have to deal with upper management

      Pros

      education opportunities if you know who and how to ask, salary if you come in at a good level, work/life balance is better than most places I've worked, good coworkers

      Cons

      Benefits package is the absolute minimum allowed by law; upper management will tie you up, lay you in the street, buy the bus, and drive it over you; the higher level in management you have to deal with the less professional the interactions.

      Average company offering little in the way of progression, and average compensation.

      Pros

      Easy going In a nice rural environment Reasonable when it comes to needing personal time or short notice holidays Not pressured

      Cons

      No challenge Salary below par for industry average No progression opportunities Lack of investment in staff, left alone to own devices for months on end Dont follow best practices and projects suffer as a result, not organised. So called flexitime not flexible at all.
