Great potential and brilliant CEO, but serious upper-management problems.

Pros

Friendly work environment with helpful and encouraging people. Strong sense of family amongst the sales team. The company produces excellent products. Benefits are fantastic. Fun social gatherings that really help to bring everyone together as a team.

Cons

Employees are encouraged to share their complaints and are then shunned for it when they do. Negative feedback is seen as the employee not being a "team player". Very far behind in technology and slow to adapt to the times. The IT department is extremely painful to deal with due to controling and manipulative management. Takes forever to get anything from them and even their staff seem disgruntled with management. No room for advancement in most departments.
