Pros

Co-workers are great. You get to work on amazing one of a kind projects.

Cons

There is no room for advancement, it doesn't matter how long you've been there or what you know. They will hold you back and hire a person with no experience to fill a job that people have been striving twords for years. If your a member of the good ole boys club, you can do anything with no repercussions. There are no yearly reviews and you can forget about a performance raise, they will keep piling stuff on a person with no incentive for the employee. Alot of issues in production comes from hiring people with no knowledge of a production setting. They are giving higher positions that many people already within the company would be far better at and they would learn quicker. When I started 6yrs ago, the atmosphere was completely different and employee morale was very high, but years of passing good people over on promotions just to give it to one of the bosses friends who have no idea what they are doing has severely hurt the employees view of the company. They will tell you one thing and then do the opposite. There is no point showing the company what you are actually capable of, because they will pigeon hole you and hold you back especially if you have a physical disability. I use to love working for the company but everyones loyalty to them is wearing extremely thin. Issues never make to the CEO or the higher ups. It gets sluffed aside and forgotten about.

Pros

Company has history of entrepreneurial spirit and "can do" reputation. Great place to start if you are recently graduated with the correct degree from just the right university, "Go Dawgs", excellent hair, and a desire to build your resume.

Cons

Company culture is changing. This was a very entrepreneurial company for many years providing lots of great challenges. Work was usually fun and creativity was at least not frowned upon. Those in leadership and management positions are failing to rise to the challenge of tougher economic environment and competition. Owners do not seem to be finding their way. Mid and upper level managers seem to be rewarded for being either a "yes" person or a jerk. Solid leaders who know what they're about have become either rare and under-utilized, or looking forward to "opportunities" elsewhere.

Pros

This place will give you a lot of opportunities and responsibilities very quickly. Great place to learn how a company works on many levels.

Cons

Don't try to over-reach your boundaries unless you want to get in trouble. too much of this company is run by "kingdom" managers where you will only get help by pleasing the kings.
