Pros

Free snacks and lunches, all of which are unhealthy. Great place to learn how not to run a business, lots of learning opportunities in watching their “leaders” fail. Reasonably sound, though mediocre technical practices as long as the completely incompetent ceo stays out of things.

Cons

This is not a workplace, it’s a religious cult. Fundamentalist Christian’s (y’know, the ones that think humans and dinosaurs coexisted?). You’ll see and hear the most ridiculous things you can possibly imagine here. No women in the workplace as they are deemed a “distraction” and because it’s a “privilege to work with men. If you are a right wing religious extremist incapable of thinking for yourself, you will thrive here. Expect to be asked to pray, have your beliefs or lack thereof questioned, and to end up in very awkward meetings where you are constantly thinking “did that actually just happen?!” on a regular basis.

Pros

-You get to work with some of the top vendors and IT technology -They feed you lunch twice a week and usually have a cabinet of Costco snacks. -They pay mileage for driving TO and FROM work, as well as your internet bill, and gym

Cons

-All Management is very neoconservative and christian... We had to pray each week before our Team meeting. -Must ALWAYS wear a suit and tie. You'll be sweating in a full suit while you're installing a network rack at 6:00AM in an empty Dentist's office. -You will work evenings and weekends with compensation in the form of starbucks gift cards. -There's no diversity. It's all white men. Only two women have ever worked for the company and they are the directors' wives, administrative work. -High turnover means clients are unfairly overbilled, because its always hourly billing so clients are paying for the extra time it takes for buddy to learn his new job. -No company car, you will be using your own vehicle to visit clients. Need to reclassify your car insurance for business use.

Pros

Paid parking - sketchy lot located next to the mustard seed. Homeless everywhere Weds and Thursday lunch - a perk! Until you realized it's just a ploy to get you to stay in the office to work.

Cons

Site managers are just ego boosting to one up each other to feel superior. You must conform to their rules, their way of speaking, writing, dress wear. You will be overworked. Expect long drawn out meetings that lead to nowhere and have no purpose other then to make the site mangers feel like God. Preachy and very religious. Not a fun environment to be in, people are depressed, sad, angry. You will be judged constantly. No women are hired - apparently it's due to they're distracting and owner and managers look down on them as 2nd class. Almost no interaction with customers. Managers can be very confrontational towards them and act like they know everything and the customer should be kept in the dark. Expect to be lectured by owner and site manager when a task isn't performed to their standard. Health benefits are non-existent. 5-6am starts, 4pm finish. It's a pretty lonely life working here.
