Pros

Most employees are passionate about the company and are generally nice people. Financially the company is very stable and is active in the community. Company is very loyal to their employees.

Cons

This is a family run business with with some friends and family who are unqualified in their positions. Poor employee business practices with no formal reviews, no career path and mostly unwritten commitments. A lot of employee "dead wood". Even at this relatively small company, change happens very slowly if at all.

Pros

Pay and benefits were great. My direct manager was fantastic

Cons

Working environment on the team I joined was highly toxic. To the point where if I knew it was as bad I would have never accepted the job offer. Ended up staying 9 months before finding another job.
