Pros

Company is growing and hiring more staff, so layoffs are unlikely. Still relatively small, so there are opportunities to acquire skills that would take many more years in a larger company.

Cons

Management is not generous with sharing the benefits of growth. No increases in pay, sometimes for years, even with a promotion, it is entirely discretionary and every pay increase has to be approved by the President! Bonuses for ordinary employees are paid out at less than target. Benefits are very expensive.

Not much room for growth

Pros

There is a cafeteria, a gym, and they have a lot of company sponsored events for employees throughout the year

Cons

Totalitarian environment. Micromanaged everything... the CEO had a mentality that if he pays you, you do what he says period. No room for discussion. I am an employee and yes I am supposed to take orders but I think as a leader you have to care about how your subordinates feel and what would make them the best employees.
