Pros

Average Salary and benefits. Flex work Hours Good place for new grads to get work experience. Not a good place for mid level and above in a persons career.

Cons

Favoritism and Office Politics are rampant at Freese. Everyone is not treated the same. Yearly performance reviews are based on peer written comments - opens the door for cheap shots from co workers. Where you start is where you will stay in this company ( unless you have connections) - very little chance for advancement. Company will not provide or pay for outside training, seminars,,,,,,etc - even if it is relative to work assignments.
