Pros

• Great colleagues who are smart, talented, hard working, and fun; • A laid back and flexible work environment; • Free access to language learning; • Great product; • Good benefits (for singles) that are covered in full; • Flexible and ample paid time off.

Cons

• Inept and arrogant leadership, particularly 3 of 4 owners; • Consistently high turnover; • A culture that looks fun, but is handicapped by an undercurrent of fear; • Very limited growth opportunities for the majority of employees; • Few leaders or mentors at the company who can serve as role models; • Owners sitting in too many key positions: Visionary, Integrator, head of Product Development, head of HR, head of Marketing, etc. • Cult-like indoctrination of the core values (which is disturbing because the owners are the worst example of living the core values, especially when looking at integrity, positive attitude, and quality) • Lack of professionalism throughout the company.
