Pros

Absolutely the team and coworkers. Could not agree more with what others have said. Great unconventional benefits include the farm with fresh produce for the employees and an all expense paid trip to Germany for the children of employees. Great experience for your kids!

Cons

Looking at the reviews, not much has changed with the (now) CEO. How did she get there you might ask? She is the girlfriend of the German owner and had no previous leadership experience. I was hopeful she would have learned how to be an effective leader in these last few years but the negative reviews prove that's still not the case. Look at the company responses given to negative reviews. Most don't even address the common themes people have mentioned and just talk about the benefits as it would be enough to offset an ineffective leader. If you have to work with this CEO on a regular basis, you'll get the picture pretty quickly. Also, look at the recent review that's all rosy. Sounds very corporate and thus fake to me. I don't doubt she's ok with business side, yet she's horrible with people.

Pros

This is the most friendly and caring office I have ever worked at. The management team goes out of their way to make sure that you are happy and enjoy working here. The benefits are top tier.

Cons

The only office option is in Wilmington, Having the option to work from home for all employees not just account managers would be ideal.
