Pros

These reviews are like grocery stores in North Korea. A lot of saving face, but if you pay close attention you can see people screaming bloody murder.

Cons

The company business model is an obscure niche that nobody really wants, and it resonates in the toxic work culture. Everyone is two-faced, and it trickles down all the way from the company president. Management is a disgrace; I worked here for 5 years and didn't receive a raise. The company president said in a meeting they adjust for inflation on workers' wages on a "case by case basis" (because inflation affects people on a case-by-case basis). After working here for 5 years and receiving promotions / added responsibilities, but no additional raises - none - in 5 years - I sincerely hope this company goes out of business, the company president loses everything, and the management all lose their jobs. Burn eternal

Growing company

Pros

No pros, the company itself over works the employees and under pays them.

Cons

The company is 'growing', refuses to hire more employees to shift the workload. In the meantime, management is quick to say that all employees are required to wear multiple hats but refuses to increase the pay. The expectation and delivery is obviously lacking. The problem is management! The CEOs are quick to say that every raise is a case by case basis since the company doesn't do annual reviews. Then to get a raise takes 18+ months if you are lucky to stay that long. Alot of empty promises and no deliverances. This applies across all branches.
