Not a place for anyone that wants career opportunities

Pros

This company tells a great story about being employee focused and had a great benefit in terms of employee ownership, but that is coming to an end.

Cons

The company has completely lost touch with anyone that isn't the same age as the senior management. No matter how hard you work, or how much business you grow, they will hire someone their same age and immediately hand all the work over to the new person, without even bothering to tell you. They constantly talk about developing internal leadership, but have repeadedly shown that is complete BS. Unless you are the same age, or at least worked at Nichols Reaserch prior to it being driven into the ground, you have no chance. If you were able to get on board when the stock was $0.25 then i hope you enjoyed the ride. Otherwise, i can't recommend this company to anyone.
