Pros

they try to act professional

Cons

poorly run. Unless you're a manager don't bother, its no good. If they buy your company start looking for another job there's nothing to look forward to. Its not that big of a company, yet it comes with all the typical problems of one. Bad management, if you can solve problems each time they have an outage, and cover someone's behind, they like you. A top priority is cost cutting, its cheap and management are liars making big promises and forget about it. Its easy to see why Gary's message is "do what you say" because it never once happens that way. And they do secretly lay off people during the pandemic, as soon as they started losing some big customers and had to hide their losses and make budget room. The negative reviews on here are accurate, too many positive ones to be real.

The technology is fairly strong.

Cons

Absolutely criminal, unethical treatment of employees. Horrendous harassment and God help you if you raise your hand for help. Avoid this trap at all costs, should be in the press it’s that bad.
