Pros
For a while this can be a lifestyle job. This is a company where you don't want to be standing at the doors at 4:30 PM. You will be crushed as the employees run out the door. The offices become dead silent after 4:30 PM. The company does provide decent benefits, though pay is well below average for similar work. There are numerous wanna-be musicians working in various low level jobs as they wait for the big break in the music business. The company occupies a beautiful building, though it is near a lower-end strip-mall and railroad tracks.
Cons
People are promoted simply by who likes them in senior management. Competence is not considered. There is considerable pressure to "dumb-down" your knowledge because senior management may be intimidated by excellence. Don't join this company if you have an MBA or have worked for a professional, competent organization. You will climb the walls. The company has a very poor track record in retaining employees. Highly competent people are regularly fired because of politics. There is much employee turnover. The future of the company after the current owner (a very old woman with no prior business experience - she inherited the company) is very uncertain despite management's assurances to the contrary. BEWARE - the company has the reputation of eavesdropping on employee phone calls and monitoring emails to determine if anyone is saying anything negative about the owner.
