Pros

- Open-minded - Forward Thinking - Genuinely cares about their employees and their professional development - Proactive in bettering internal operations day-to-day - Management is down-to-earth and relatable - Performance is recognized and rewarded quickly through promotion - Compensation structure is vastly better than the industry leaders - I have not crossed paths with anybody that dislikes their job (everybody is happy and that means a lot)

Cons

- You start at the bottom to develop your skills; some view it as a negative, some know it's actually positive. You cannot become the best overnight. You HAVE to have a work ethic and internal drive to succeed. - 401k match could be better, but it's a smaller company with limited resources and pretty good when taking that into account - PTO policy leaves some to be desired but they give you more than the industry average to make up for it. Take your wins with your losses there.

You listed everything we pride ourselves on and continue to strive for. Thanks for the positive review! Unfortunately, the limited space makes it difficult to have both a Ping Pong Table and Pool Table. We agree a gym would be cool.... maybe one day!

Pros

Fun work environment, great culture, competitive pay and paid time off

Cons

Work life balance can be tough but also rewarding because that typically means that you are successful and sometimes requires work to be done after typical business hours.
