Pros

TJC has some key individuals that are very good. TJC has good relations with it's clients [how I'm not sure?]

Cons

There are a number of them: 1 You are a temporary employee no matter what your title is. 2 They never train anybody for anything. 3 Pay is ok, not great, just ok. 4 They have a lot of overseas employees [working for less] and their knowledge base is at the same level. They normally take twice the time or longer to do the work, and then it's poor quality. TJC doesn't care that much, they get paid by time and materials. 5 Benefits are very poor. During my time there you got 10 days personal time, whether you use it as sick time, or vacation time. This is the same for all employees whether they have worked there 10 days or 10 years, except upper management-owners. 6 TJ does have some good people in key positions, but they have some stinkers too, and they are not overseas know nothings, but they are just warm bodies filling a position. 7 I don't believe this review will do much, primarily because unofficially TJC is for sale. Tim & Lisa bought a home on the coast and are looking for a good out to retire.

Pros

The company has grown over the years, but it still feels like a small office - a place where you are not just another number. There is the feeling that each employee is an important part of the company. TJ Cross makes an effort to provide events to show continual appreciation (car show, monthly drawings, friendly support staff, etc.).

Cons

The organization of the company is very isolating within each department, linking only through the Chief of each area. This does not create an environment conducive to cooperation or even getting to know your coworkers in other departments. It seems inefficient to not take advantage of built-in design checks that come from interdepartmental cooperation of the actual designers - not the Chiefs who only review the work cursorily.
