Pros

People at Konrad Group are definitely the smartest people I have worked with. They understand technology and you will never feel like the smartest person in the room. Most of the employee are really nice and helpful. Good work culture if you are young. Monthly Socials, weekly lunches. Beer on tap and a lot of snacks to munch on. Lots of other social fun activities like Scotch nights, Board game nights etc. If you are just starting your career, it's a really good place to learn a lot and have fun.

Cons

All the good is un-done by an unexperienced and immature management. For a company with around 200 employees, there is no proper HR to take your issues to. It's a very top down, one directional management style. They do start you with 4 week (20 days) vacation, but that includes sick days and compulsory Christmas shutdown, so you are getting a net of 12-13 vacation days. Employees come to work when they are sick to save vacation days and make other employees sick. There is no work from home. No formal career development plan, it all depends on how active your manager is. Work hours are 9-6, so work-life balance is not that great, especially for people with families. The culture can feel very frat-house-ish sometimes.

Pros

Great place to be early in your career, with good responsibility and fun coworkers your age. Use as a learning period then start looking for better opportunities.

Cons

Slower, less engaging work (could be a pro though); management cultivates an odd greeklife-eqsue social environment that can limit opportunities for people who don't buy in; pay well below industry standard and minimal benefits
