Pros

There are enough challenges to keep the work interesting for a while. This could be a good place work if it weren’t for management.

Cons

The CEO is unprofessional, frequently speaking negatively about employees to whoever will listen. It is always someone else’s fault for his business not running as it should. You will rarely, if ever be recognized for your accomplishments. They are working on a 10 year old pay scale. They do not give regular pay raises. There is no time or budget for training or professional development. The equipment and software is old. They are always underestimating how long projects will take, and their solution is always to work more hours. They don’t allow work from home unless you are a member of the boss’ family. Turnover is quite high due to general dissatisfaction. If this company spent as many resources to retain people as the do to hire people, they wouldn’t have to keep hiring so many people.

Pros

Get to be hands on and not a cog in the machine.

Cons

Small company so work load is shared between the people available - tends to get repetitive sometimes. PTO is low when you start.
