Pros

- Annual bonus and stock options for higher ups - No layoffs because turnover is high and they need you

Cons

- Slow to no growth, very hard to get promoted - Promotions are based on tenure and not performance - Super shorthanded because turnover is high - The company requires you to pay out of pocket to attend Landmark courses to be qualified for promotions. - Favoritism and nepotism. If you are related to the owners or anyone in senior management, you get special treatment - People boast about having no work-life balance
