Pros

Pay and benefits are good. The ability to learn new tech is available and encouraged. Several awesome employees. Cool office space.

Cons

Poor communication. Lack of direction. Constantly changing vision and chasing new things. An inability to see anything through. Very frustrating. Would speak up, but too scared. Misogyny. Veiled racism. Bias. Nepotism. People get fired for speaking up. Fear resulting in a yes man culture. Emphasis on man culture.

Pros

There really aren't any in the long run. I used to think there were some but now understand that all the pros are just veiled cons.

Cons

I can't begin to list them. Read all the 1 star reviews... they are all true. All of the 5 star reviews are staged by management, friends, family, and/or new hires that don't know any better yet. Dan Charbanaeu (CEO) is not an honorable man, plain and simple. If you make a deal with a dishonorable man you get what you deserve. That is a lesson that took me years after being employed there to fully learn. There is no verbal or written agreement that Dan is not willing to violate for his own ego.

Pros

Company has traditionally hired hard-working common and dedicated, team oriented individuals from middle management on down through the ranks that by-and-large have been a pleasure to work with, in my experiences. CBT Nuggets offers very good insurance coverage with low premiums.

Cons

High turnover Lack of empathy from upper management No published pay structure No cost of living or merit increases - Employees must request raises through supervisor to be approved by CEO Lack of overall direction Siloed workgroups Extremely high recruiting and hiring standards lead to lengthy vacancies and ultimately larger workloads for team members
