Pros
-Great discounts on wine -Bonding with co-workers over the unnecessary stress caused by poor management and the lack of proper structure in the company -If you're looking for a job in the tasting room (as long as you are not the manager) it's actually decent pay for service work and it's also isolated from most of the impromptu shenanigans that happen in the office.
Cons
-Insidious culture that rewards taking credit for others' work and being liked by the CEO. -Huge disconnect between upper management's big ideas and the reality of how things are put together. So often a big shiny idea will be made in a exec meeting and the workers who do the groundwork will have to deal with with it on crunch time while handling their normal duties. -If you actually do work that makes a difference and addresses problems with the company, I found it is quite common that you receive negative feedback. I have been told, multiple times, that I should not bring up known issues with the company's products among other things. I have been told this is because it makes other executives look bad because what's most important to the company's upper management is the illusion that they are making an impact. -Logistical nightmare. They call it the "Precept way" as a means of hiding how unprofessional and unkempt their way of business is. -Absolutely no on-board training system is in place and you will be doing things beyond your job description starting day two. -Terrible pay rates - disgustingly low for a Seattle based company. -Huge bonuses for upper management based off the their subordinates' success, however the lower level employees see little to none of this money. -Upper management is known to ignore urgent emails and often set you up for failure.
