Pros

you get paid mostly on time

Cons

No benefits, no bonuses. 401K match that doesn't vest for 6 years and no one has worked there longer than 2. Micro manages, lies to clients and puts you in awkward positions. If you're stuck in traffic expects you to write that time off as PTO. Micro manages and has unreal expectation of you. The guy is cheap, you're expected to buy your own headset for the phone and pretty much anything else you may need. He doesn't care about the employees because it's cheaper to replace you. He has these "core values" that only apply to how you treat him because there is no honesty or integrity coming from him.

Pros

I have worked with Circulent multiple times over the last decade and they have always been great to work with. The team is always eager to help their clients with any of their IT needs. Marcus and his team are there to provide real insight and help consult their clients on the best strategies for their IT and security. Circulent does a good job of describing what their services are and what impact those have on their clients business. They are dedicated to their clients success.

Cons

No issues in my time dealing with anyone at Circulent

Pros

Fair wages based on skill set Interesting work and client base Owner committed to success of the business and his employees For a very small company, you can trust that you will get paid and be treated fairly Good place to learn new technologies and expand your skillset

Cons

Small businesses are different than large corporations and many employees expect big company treatment and perks that simply cannot be had in a small, sole proprietor business. No growth opportunities because there are no positions other than owner and employees. You can make more money if the companies profits grow, so you should have that mindset going into the job. If you want upward mobility, find a bigger company or start your own business.
