Pros

The only pro for working at TLS.NET is the ability to learn new things while on the job. It gives good insight on the technologies that go into running an ISP and web development. This being said, you can learn new things at almost any job.

Cons

Upper management of the company does not seem to care about the well being of its workers. Unrealistic expectations are placed on individuals, and they are subsequently reprimanded for being unable to live up to said expectations. It seems as though management wants workers to fail at their job. Also, these unrealistic expectations are compensated with a meager salary, which is not at all competitive within the job market. When these concerns are brought up to management, they always promise changes to the work environment, but nothing ever comes of the promise; concerns are not taken seriously. If this trend continues, I feel that TLS.NET as a company will cease to exist.

Pros

As a current TLS.NET employee, I can honestly say that I look forward to coming into the office every day. A typical day allows for a variety in job responsibilities, and a reasonable workload with the opportunity to never stop learning. Management is willing to play to your strengths, and often offers the chance to consider what projects you would like to be involved in for the future, based on those strengths .You won't find them breathing down your neck, and barking orders. There is no disconnect between the executive team and entry-level employees - something many companies seem to struggle with – In fact, management definitely recognizes the importance of performing as a team and building comradery with your co-workers. During the summer, we have cookouts, and 2nd Friday of the month Happy Hour at a local pub. This is the most likable group of coworkers I’ve ever worked alongside, and can tell that HR values character when hiring for a position here. Overall, I'm proud to work for a cunning-edge technology firm that has served local and nationwide businesses for over 30 years - It's good to know I have a stable career-path and can continue to grow alongside the company.

Cons

At TLS.NET, you’re in control of your own success and given the resources to do well – this means you won’t be able to blame someone else for poor performance. Depending on what kind of person you are, this is either a huge plus, or you just lost your scapegoat. If you're not a person who likes to put in the work and hold themselves accountable, this probably isn't the place for you.
