Pros

The company is constantly doing things to promote camaraderie and employee morale. Yes, the work is stressful, deadlines are tight, but that's true of any successful company in today's market. SAM does an amazing job of offering work-life balance in a growth oriented firm.

Cons

With exponential growth comes growing pains. But, the company has made great strides in catching up with technology, policy, and support staff since their initial expansion began in 2012-13.

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.
