Pros

New stuff to learn .

Cons

Do not waste your time with this company . A lot of assessment , wonderlic test , mathematics and grammar test . Even if you perform good , they will not take you . They will say we need a better fit but in fact they do not know what they are looking for . You can have all the experience and the skills , you will still not be a valuable asset .

Pros

-If you perform there is some job security. -Opportunities for internal position changes.

Cons

- bottom line is more important than employee retention. - micromanagement in every position - policies trump common sense - uncertain future as owners are old as dirt, have their fingers in every aspect of the business and have no exit strategy. - outselling abilities to perform quality work (employees are over worked and underappreciated) - compensation is far below similar positions in the industry.

Pros

Some knowlegeable AV professionals. Per diem.

Cons

Bad benefits. Travel overnight 60% of the YEAR. ALL employees in a certain position are required to share a hotel room with another coworker. They use up your PTO at their discretion(not stated anywhere in company policies or procedure).
