Pros

- Good health insurance and benefits - Company is continuing to grow in the tough ecomnomy - Reasonable salary compensation

Cons

- Terrible HR support - Company is growing too fast to keep up with itself and there is a lack of good company structure and management - Bad communication between departments - only time I heard from some departments was when they were pointing the finger at something gone wrong - Expectation to work late and outside of normal office hours - No team building within individual departments or between departments - feels like an environment of 'each man to his own' - Didn't get annual reviews or exit interview - felt like no-one in management ever cared that I worked there

Pros

Decent pay. Not much else.

Cons

No lunch break, no breaks in general, can’t go to the bathroom for hours on end, the managers’ daughter gets special treatment because her mother is in charge. Constant criticism and unfair treatment.
