Pros
Flexible schedule, Friday half days (but see cons about work hours) Good benefits Most employees are good to work with and want to do a good job Challenging work
Cons
Dictator CEO, not receptive to ideas/won't listen, does not recognize hard work, constantly complains and berates people in front of peers, subordinates, anyone. Unilaterally sets unrealistic schedules/goals/financial targets and explodes when not met. Constantly changes direction and blames others. Insensitive, micro-manager, no respect for others. CEO attacks anyone, even entry level people, without going through the person's direct manager. None of senior managers will stand up to CEO. Hours are insane. Friday's are 1/2 days but no one can leave on time! People are expected to work 24/7 and then some. People are expected to work on holidays/vacations. High turnover and low morale. People have been fired in their 1st week on the job, others have quit within weeks of starting, some have given it a few months but just walked out. People are not given the tools they need to succeed. Work harder and figure it out yourself environment.
