Pros

Results oriented. If you are capable and work hard, you will get ahead. Company has grown every year, even during recession. Excellent benefits.

Cons

Growing pains still an issue. Short-term result orientation not good for long term planning. Some infrastructure and product issues as a consequence.

Our rate of growth has definitely caused some growing pains, but true to our result-oriented DNA, we are constantly striving to improve the infrastructure as well as ensure leadership is aligned around a cohesive strategy.
