Pros

The work atmosphere is casual and there is a lot of room for creative thinking. There is a good deal of flexibility to take on new assognments and develop different skills if you're interested and up for the task.

Cons

You never know when there are going to be layoffs. Co-workers seem to distrust each other and gripe behind your back. CEO is constantly changing direction of the company and expect sales people to follow suit over night or be fired. Different departments tend to step on each other's toes and duplicating effort already done or in process in another group.

Pros

There are slim to none.

Cons

The company does not seem to be doing well on many levels. They seem to have few clients and they bring nothing new to the table compared to their competitors. Employees there complain and are disgruntled. Management has no time to address their issues. They favor employees based on work that is required for the company to operate. Management is also very young and extremely inexperienced not only about the industry but also managing employees. They are in way over their heads. Any qualified employee there is put in their place. There is little leadership or guidance in work. Tasks change on the fly and there is no set job description. The job description is nothing like the work you will do, since they require you to "be flexible" and you may end up making nothing but PowerPoint slides even with a graduate degree. They will entice you with growth and opportunity and if they don't like you, they will not hesitate to cut you. You will have wasted time doing and learning nothing.
