Pros

-Snacks -No overtime -Possibly better than shoveling cow manure

Cons

-Minimal and ineffectual communication from middle management to us -Seems to be no communication from upper management to middle management -Thus no communication in general -People who were useful to the company got laid off and people who aren't useful haven't been laid off so it's very difficult to do our jobs at all -Starts bad and gets worse (unlike shoveling cow manure) List could be very long but a simple summary of: it's a really awful place to work and I'm looking for another job (possibly shoveling cow manure) right now

Pros

If I had to invent one pro it would be that some of the people that haven't left the company yet are extremely talented.

Cons

The management doesn't care for quality of product. Even worse, the management doesn't care for the happiness of their employees. In fact, they have utmost disrespect for their employees. Kibo acquired the company I worked for and not only slashed all our benefits to the bone: they even cut our (already below market) pay. This company has no sense of culture and is stingy beyond belief. It's one thing to cut costs, it's another entirely to tell everyone they're overpaid, cut benefits and salaries and then replace real talent with fresh college graduates that can barely code. Not only this, the nepotism is sickening. People with no skills in certain areas get promoted to manager those areas based on how well they know the CEO. It's grossly irresponsible and I have never once regretted leaving this company.

Pros

I can't think of any except, nice location with a lot of extra desks and empty offices. The few remaining original employees are great but they all have "foxhole" syndrome.

Cons

Management has no idea how to be compassionate. They laid off more employees the Thursday before Xmas and told the remaining that at any given time they could replace any senior employee with 2 right out college... Benefits are really bad. Esp. for anyone over 25 with a family. Dont bother with this company, it is not a happy place. If I had to listen to the quote "if you aren't number one, then you are a loser" one more time, I felt like I would throw something.
