Pros

Free Dinners on Monday, Beer and other drinks and snacks, Co-workers.

Cons

I was a temp for almost 5 months. I asked at least once a month if I was going to be eventually become permanent. Management kept giving me BS excuses. They noticed my hard work when it was convenient for them. My first 2 months here I was carrying one of my co-workers due to life issues but management did not notice. They tend to be indecisive, constantly changing things which can make your job very frustrating.

Business Outlook

Pros

As all of the other reviews have mentioned, great colleagues Fun work space Opportunity to get in on the "ground level" If you have a good idea you're encouraged to share Decent pay (for those at director/executive/manager level, at least) Company contributes enough toward benefits to completely cover a single person's insurance expense

Cons

Below market pay for entry-level positions (sure, they're entry level, but still) Long hours Office closed for a week in the summer & week between Christmas and New Year's - sounds great but you're forced to take this off and the days come out of your PTO (leaves you with 6 days) Lack of snacks/drinks/treats (yeah they have beer, water and apples but would be nice to have other items a la facebook, google, etc) High turn around Overall Disorganization (hopefully this will be fixed in the near future with new execs brought in)
