      Pros

      The leadership is responsive and the company has a disciplined focus on growth. The benefits are good, including a flex schedule and a nice 401k match.

      Cons

      Certain areas of the business are still understaffed and trying to run as lean as possible, even with growth through complex acquisitions.
