Pros

Fun people Good pay Downtown location Flexible schedule if people don't abuse it

Cons

No growth Only profitable because salaries are being slashed Zero opportunities for advancement Many promises are made by the COO (especially when he’s drinking); none ever happen COO writes item in a agenda, but never follows up on stuff COO has anger issues and has a reputation for taking it out on employees COO has overlooked personnel issues in regard to hostile work environment multiple times with past and present employees Stifling of employee concerns Free-for-all among employees since there is zero leadership Leadership claims transparency, while hiding all they can Leadership/management talks a big game, but no follow through Owner is kept in the dark and believes his company is a enjoyable and productive workplace No accountability Hours worked are based upon friendships – friendly people need apply! No incentive programs for sales to sell Sales doesn’t have to sell to remain employed Employees are complacent Constant reinvention of the wheel Company events provided to mask issues rather than deal with them Expensive insurance Squeaky wheels and drinking buddies gets all the oil No exit interviews

Pros

Great benefits...insurance paid for by company...great location in the heart of downtown.

Cons

Very closed minded company...nothing in place to grow or encourage employees. Most companies that have a sales staff also have ongoing contests and other tools in place to motivate the sales staff. This company acts as if it is satisfied with the status quota... The motivation is a meeting where they talk about not ways to improve but how great the competition is doing.
