Pros
The time off is the major pro for Deccan. 3 weeks vacation to start plus 1 week sick time and 1 Friday off a month. In addition they closed the office for two weeks the past two Christmas holidays and have everyone the time paid. The community service events have been fun too. Lots of fun office events. Coworkers are great. Everyone works as a team for the most part. They're always friendly to each other and enjoy each other's company during events.
Cons
The biggest con is executive management. The micromanaging and distrust begins at the top and filters it's way down through the company. It is widely known that the CEO is moody and expects all employees to have smiles at all times. When she is on vacation the mood in the office lightens significantly. Everyone walks on egg shells. Wondering who will get fired this week. There's a reason there's a staggeringly high turnover rate here. It's because people don't feel appreciated or secure in their jobs. Jamba Juice is nice but doesn't make up for the fact that we aren't trusted to do our jobs. No retirement plan. Below average health benefits. You cannot add a spouse to your benefits. Not flexible at all with scheduling. Everyone has to work 8:30 - 5:30. Except for higher level managers who seem to leave earlier most of the time. Everyone is salary yet is docked for hours missed and not compensated for overtime. The office morale is miserable.
