Pros

flexible environment for some, business serves a sector that needs serving, benefits and pay is fair

Cons

management needs to support employees, promotions are made by who you know, do more with less, reward for good work is more work

Pros

Fair wages and benefits Looking to change culture - involving management more actively involved with employees through regular communication

Cons

Long hours, continues to push more work on people. Makes work life balance difficult at time. Moving headquarters from current location to two different buildings - that are more than a mile apart and separated by major highway.
