Pros

Flexibility in hours, small enough company that you can basically know everyone, even if there is a bunch of different offices. The company wide meeting is awesome but you cant go every year unfortunately.

Cons

I wish everyone got a chance to go to the company wide meeting every year, but I get why its not financially feasible. The only other thing that bothers me is how its not exactly the most tolerant company when it comes to accepting people. I think you'd probably get fired for being gay unfortunately. Most of the leaders are evangelical christian. There's even a pastor that comes around and talks to you once a week. Its weird but it doesn't bother me and I could see how it would make some people feel uncomfortable.

Pros

Garver is a very family oriented firm. They care for you as a person not just as a number. Making my move to Garver was the best career choice i could have ever made.

Cons

Due to the size of Garver, which is not a bad thing, the chance of working on a big signature project is not has high as other firms.
