Pros

Potential for growth, generous employee discount. if you decided to stick it out, eventually you'll get promoted because most people quit

Cons

toxic environment, too much gossip (from upper management). they try to recruit from ivy league schools for little pay compared to the workload. upper management has no sense of urgency and this results in constantly rushing or working late to finish projects. When things go wrong, everyone is very accusatory and will call you out on company wide emails.

Pros

What I loved about this job is getting full ownership over my part of the business, and I know a lot of people stick around because they feel a similar passion and ownership. Even though the company is 25 years old, there are still many areas where a much work is needed and therefore great opportunity for new people to come in and make big impact.

Cons

No flexibility for employees to work from home when needed, and terrible PTO package. The family leadership is not transparent, makes questionable business decisions.
