Pros

Great people. Company tries hard to have fun social outings to keep up employee morale.

Cons

Horrible pay. No growth opportunities. Upper management often disregards what people in lower positions have to say. Using outdated tools to get the job done. Suggestions for improvement are never listened to, unless you are in a high position in the company. Emphasis is on saving money rather than doing whatever it takes to ensure customer satisfaction.

Pros

Lots of technologies to work with and gain experience with. Cisco, HP, NetApp, VMWare to name a few. Very relaxed atmosphere when all is going well or not a lot of workload.

Cons

No training what so ever. Bad professional culture with a "figure it out mentality" when things in IT should be more standardized and stable. Unrealistic expectations from management at times.

Pros

Flexible work hours. No one really keeps track of when you come and go, as long as you get the work done they are relatively satisfied, but rarely will they reward (verbally or financially) for the things you do. In order to get recognized in this company you need to voice what you do or no one will ever notice.

Cons

Management is very poor. They do not care about their employees. This reflects in how the employees treat their customers also. There are no rewards here and the salary/pay is very poor. Tech support/Customer Support agents make as much as their programmers/systems administrators (in that they both make little to nothing). They actually make more when you factor in the amount of overtime put in by the latter.
