Pros

Small company feel, great co-workers, good offices, clear lines of authority and communication, try to make work "fun", very autonomous work environment, some promotion from within, extensive and available training opportunities

Cons

Growing so fast they can't keep up, feels like they are only barely in control, raises/promotions not transparent at all, scheduled reviews are sporadic, offices very spread out so direct contact with supervisor is impossible, absolutely everyone feels very overwhelmed and have the workload of at least 2 fte- except for those who do nothing, but are protected or favored!, constant shuffling of supervisors and work responsibilities

Pros

Was a genuinely great place to work. Great people and great culture. It was worth the slightly-lower-than-average pay because work life balance and benefits were great. I enjoyed going to work every day.

Cons

Poor financial decisions from upper management regarding the shareholder program led to the company's demise. Upper management sold out to WSP. Management made millions while long time employees got zilch. As someone else had mentioned, retention bonuses were unfairly distributed. Most people didn't get any retention bonus even if they had been long time employees of the company. It really felt like everyone who wasn't upper management got stabbed in the back. They got their payout then dumped the company. Still stings to this day.
