Pros

Managers are very supportive of their staff and each other. Great learning and development opportunities almost daily. The company itself is always evolving. Good health insurance benefits, paid vacations, and paid time off offered to staff.

Cons

Retirement plan not yet available. Dealing with IT department can be difficult at times. Healthy mean plan was removed as well.

DO NOT WORK HERE - CEO is an abusive tyrant

Pros

Pay is good - but that's only because the CEO knows he has to overpay to keep you

Cons

Awful work environment especially for managers and above. The CEO only operates on his time and expects managers to stay well past 8pm on multiple nights. The CEO is a roided out freak who yells at everyone while banging his desk and throwing things. He never misses an opportunity to let you know how stupid you are simply because you can't read his mind. If you are a female, do not even think about working here. The "c" word is pretty commonplace here to describe women.

Pros

Underground parking for Managers, most people working there are friendly, IT support is top notch. Great technology in place, and developers really care about success.

Cons

No vacations, forced to work 50-60 hours per pay period including weekends. Salaried employees must clock in and will be written up if 1 min late, even though you work 50+ hours per pay period. Owner and president has gone absent which is good since he openly hates the company and everyone in it. No real management team, pure chaos due to micromanagement by HR and Ops. Promise of 6,9,12 month reviews however they rarely give them on time and you are more likely to get a pay cut rather than a raise. When the owner enters the building, office doors shut and people hide, if you are caught walking or talking to anyone prepare to be berated and written up. Owner is a tyrant and rules be fear, language and screaming is common, punches monitors and smashes keyboards, truly hates everyone and tells everyone through shocking tantrums. Claim "no politics" however it is running rampant. Lowball salaries are a norm with promises of 90 day increase that never happens. Company is slowly shrinking and will die as they loose customers and virtually no sales staff.
