Pros

Free sodas and interesting work topics. Very informative to learn about various types of billing styles across different industries.

Cons

Low pay. After working in other places for several years, I believe the work environment and management style here was very odd. Long term coworkers were either in a childish mood or unbelievably serious. The owners repeatedly made up future potential for current employees in the hopes that they would stick around longer, but the opportunities were unrealistic.

Pros

You'll learn how management SHOULD NOT work. You'll learn not to trust your boss. You'll learn to avoid customer questions because you can't tell them the truth . You'll learn to take an insult and keep working. You'll learn to keep your head down and be silent while others are being chastised. You'll learn that a "productive" work environment includes silence and barely acknowledging your coworkers.

Cons

Seriously, though, it was a miserable job. I liked my coworkers, although I barely got to know them because if you exchanged more than a couple of sentences that weren't work related, one of the bosses would suddenly appear to ask if you needed anything. That was the only time they did that. A few long-term employees try to make excuses for the owners and say that they mean well or that they're trying to get better. But it's not enough to make up for the way they treat people. They do serve cake on birthdays. And I guess that's a benefit. And they talk about a wonderful future and how much money we'll all have some day. And that sounds nice. Meanwhile, you're broke, overworked, underappreciated, and miserable while you go about your work and try to avoid the owner's direct attention.

Pros

Only pro I could give would be that their product is pretty good, or at least the product I was given authority to see.

Cons

This company has MAJOR trust issues and will take your hard working efforts and diminish them, as if you were absolutely clueless. The CEO & CTO are husband and wife. The CTO is also the companies Board President. Without going into great detail, the biggest thing I can say is that the negative reviews that are associated with this company are very true and extremely accurate. The lack of trust and the extreme micro-management is absolutely awful. The continued disregard about employees mentioning a hostile and toxic work environment, shows lack of respect. As an employee, contractor, or anything else, please be aware that you accepting to work for or with this company, will ultimately challenge you to choose between staying at a job to pay the bills or continue to allow for mental instability from the awful environment. They will claim that their pay and benefits are greatly competitive, but in this market and in this industry, they are not at all. I wish you the best in your decision making!
