      Pros

      * Ascend is a start up in an established business, which means the potential to shape and mold the company at all levels is endless. I come to work, make suggestions, am told to implement my ideas and go home feeling satisfied with my contribution. * Great people - the culture is fledgling and not 100% consistent yet, but it's getting there. The people are collaborative, easy to work with, direct and open. Very few political games here! * The sky is the limit. I feel I can create my own role. I'm not siloed into a small hole and told to stay there - not territorial! * Pay is competitive.

      Cons

      * Don't pay for parking. * No flexible work schedule. * Can't cover my spouse on my benefits if he/she is eligible for his/her employer benefits.

      Pros

      Growth rate - this company is growing very fast in the last several years. New market and business - there are growing opportunities inside the company.

      Cons

      Long term goal is not clear at all. No company culture after spin-off and sell off. Employee turnover rate is high. Please expect heavy workload.

      Good but rocky. A lot of quick changes

      Pros

      The owners know how to make money and don't mind spending money in order to make more money. Great process to determine where to spend money.

      Cons

      No real time off. The more time you spend to meet dates the more dates you have to meet with a shorter time period. One person is expected to do the job of 2.5 to 3 people.
