Pros

Company is young and offers a lot of opportunities to taste experience in all different departments within the company. They have momentum to possibly grow into a large part of the language interpretation market. Company has above average medical benefits and other benefits most other corporations no longer provide with minimal cost to employees.

Cons

Scheduling\breaks are not logical and borderline insane. The staff are generally mistrustful of each other and the company with good reason. Management has no empathy for human needs such as breaks\restrooms, acknowledgement of good work, or time off. The staff generally has no official training, are fearful of losing their positions, and even tend to play childish games on each other to gain recognition or hinder others image. If you are salary..expect a 60-80 hr work week. Do not expect management to honor any type of verbal or written agreements you make with them and they only welcome "yes sirs" so be careful thinking outside of the box

Pros

In all of my professional career, the IT work here is the most laid back I have ever been with. Sadly, the fun was short-lived after we were sold out when the company was acquired by its rival Propio. They laid off the entire IT folks, dismantling this competition, retaining only less than ten from the whole organization. But it was a pleasure while it lasted. Too bad because their folks were easy going and management is mediocre but I learned a lot, plus it was what I needed in my situation, where I had to multitask working while taking care of personal matters, so it was a bonus.

Cons

Nothing really complicates my tenure here except some projects are really slow in implementation, lacking clear requirements and at some point I was shoved into something where there was really no discussion at all about a project and you just have to dig into it but I have experience so it was no sweat for me at all. There was also a point where I heard a lie about a project being complete but when I started working on it I just realized it was not even started at all and the other is not even deployed or existing so there you go I just had to keep silent and work on completing it. Plus Propio conned us by giving us false hope into thinking we get severance pay but it is not really severance pay instead they just tapped into the our state unemployment benefit and made it look like it is a severance pay. Unemployment benefit is not severance pay.
