Pros

There are seriously no pros.

Cons

This is honestly the worst job I have ever had. They work you to death, do not give bonuses worth anything, and they talk down to you. I have always had good rapport with my bosses in the past, but this duo is out of a nightmare. They have no regard for the life you have outside of work. They underpay you, and they offer horrible benefits. I took a leap of faith because it was a small start up, and I thought I could make a difference. Boy was I wrong. I left, and now make 20k more a year (which brings me to an average salary), have great benefits, profit sharing, and great bosses. If you stay there too long, you will seriously start doubting yourself. Working for this company is like being in an abusive relationship.

Pros

Small company, relatively inclusive culture. Promising if outdated technology. There is a vision, even if it isn't entirely well defined. Rapid growth, while I was there.

Cons

CEO/COO husband and wife team take "company first" to a whole new level. Employees are burned up, out, and chastised if they speak out. I was removed from team meetings after certain staff members left, because the "company" was afraid I wouldn't parrot the company line or have questions I worked for over two years as a manager there, and going above and beyond is hardly recognized. I can cite dozens of instances of work nights lasting until 3 or 4 am, including one where I was then chastised for coming in late the following morning (sleep is a luxury). Unrealistic deadlines, sales that has the green light to mislead, poor compensation, and a COO more interested in new paint and furniture than working. A CEO that has a skillset from 2008, and no interest in grasping anything new. Marketing new verticals before a single line of code is written, then making sure responsibility and blame gets shifted to the lower levels.

We are sorry to hear you feel this way. geoAMPS is a young, small company in the process of change that will benefit all members of the team. We have quickly become the premier provider of software solutions to manage land right and infrastructure assets. We configure our products to meet each client’s needs. Because we have clients in different locations, long hours and late work nights are occasionally necessary, but employees are given several days notice. As the geoAMPS team grows, the need for long hours will be reduced. Thank you very much for sharing your opinions. We appreciate the time and effort you devoted during your time at geoAMPS.
