Pros

People are nice and easy to work with and they are trying their best to keep the business afloat.

Cons

Below average pay, systems are sort of buggy, a lot of processes still need to be streamlined and it makes some of the work functions a lot harder than it has to be. Culture is not what it used to be with massive layoffs and leadership switching hands every year or so.
