Pros

Friendly work environment with a desire to keep the business afloat. Parent company has deep pockets that should eliminate financial bumps in the road.

Cons

A complete lack of direction from the top. Company changes objectives on a daily basis and backtracks on important decisions. Benefits have been cut over and over with no communications on how to improve things. Transparency of the status of the company is missing at every step and the overall feeling is 'do more with less'. Company is run with a 'spreadsheet' point of view instead of looking at the business as a group of people trying to do what is best. Zero interest has been shown to improve morale. Conflicts of interest arise and everyone shrugs their shoulders.
