Pros

SAM is a great company that does so much for their employees. It's a friendly, family and employee centered environment with no arbitrary rules. The company and managers give you the tools to grow in your career and truly support that growth, whether it's in your own department or another. Departments share resources with other departments and offices to make it a more collaborative. There are many other benefits outside the typical healthcare, 401k, etc. There are free breakfast tacos on Wednesday, daily fresh fruit and monthly events. As mentioned, SAM gives back to their employees in ways that can't be put on a benefits sheet. They sent volunteers to help rebuild employee's homes that were affected by Hurricane Harvey. They give away a $10,000 scholarship to an employee's family member attending college and are encouraged to do so many volunteer hours for the community. It feels like a company that may have existed 30 years ago; where the employees do good work, are rewarded/appreciative and stay until retirement.

Cons

SAM is growing rapidly so they have their growing pains but seem to managing it pretty well.

Pros

Variety of projects and latest technology and software.

Cons

Equity investor ownership means all that matters is profits. Negotiate the highest salary possible. Be wary of offer that includes a bonus as investors and senior leaders get their bonuses before anyone else. Offices in other states and regions frequently go into neighboring states and regions to get their sales. Runs more like a bunch of individual companies than one cohesive unit.
