Pros

Opportunity for oversees travel and working on a known mission.

Cons

Micromanagement by family senior executives, resistant to new ideas, salary, operates as small company, can not compete against big companies on price or solutions. Raging temper of CEO. Majority of employees there under a year before quitting or being laid off. Poor interviewing/hiring decisions.

Revolving door - steer clear!

Pros

Can't really speak to any. Everything seemed to be in a state of flux all the time. Too bad really it could be a great place to work.

Cons

Revolving door - people being axed unfairly. Turmoil, transition, upheaval all over the place. Julian needs to get a handle on it.

Pros

This is a privately held company that is family owned and operated. That's a disclaimer, not a pro. You love your family but you probably can't stand them for the majority of the time. The work here is very interesting and there are opportunities to expand and excel. Benefits are great and... ok, that's really all there is.

Cons

If it's so great to work here, why is the C-suite in NY? This disconnect between the CEO and the headquarters makes it pretty easy to understand why there's no investment in the culture here. Turnover's pretty high and there's a big emphasis on bringing in experienced people (and then not letting them use their experience and micromanaging everything). There's an air of negativity that may stem from one lost proposal after another, constantly seeing coworkers leave, or having work/ideas stifled.
