Pros

Small business, direct access to your immediate supervisor. Everyone is of a helpful nature. Boss takes responsibility of training and mentoring (sometimes more than 1 employee at a time). Lot of responsibilities given as more and more time in company. Lot of product knowledge can be gained for specific sales activities. International travel possibilities and learning opportunities. Also, great position to learn lot of business skills (overtime).

Cons

Processes sometimes tedious and could be stream-lined. More up-to-date technology can be implemented to further improve process efficiency and save time and money.

Pros

Good for Entry Level - ASICO is willing to take chances on hiring and training people new to the field. If you are just starting out it can be a good introduction to learn from. Flexibility - Managers are very open to working with you on alternative schedules or other accomodations

Cons

Management issues - This mainly refers to the company president. Extreme micromanagement. Often unclear or conflicting objectives, and expect to be berated if goals are not met in any way. Hiring practices - Very high turnover due to toxic work environment. Discourages more qualified employees due to rigidity and micromanagement. Many new hires quit or were let go within a month. Poor communication - Expect to be kept in the dark to a ridiculous degree. This compounds with the hiring issues as you often won't be informed of new people starting or leaving, even if you're expected to work closely with them. Misguided directions/Stagnation - Over the time I was at the company, the same ineffective practices were used with no change. Any attempts at improvement were quickly rejected or abandoned. As a result the company does not grow or advance for its employees in any significant way. Toxic Work Environment - Micromanagement and expectations brew issues for the team. Most of the team works very late most days due to excessive deadlines and workload. Issues or mistakes are resolved ineffectively and met with verbal abuse from upper management.
