Pros

- Employees are considered members of an extended family. - Accessible management and regular updates on company performance/prospect information. - Work-life balance flexibility, including telecommuting if job responsibilities allow. - Emphasis on customer service and producing quality products. - High pride in workmanship throughout. - Casual work environment. - Professional development opportunities. - Cultural fit is a primary criteria in hiring decisions. Most people who stay for a year, end up staying for many more, often decades.

Cons

- Pay for some positions could be better, but benefits are decent, and management is in the process of reviewing and adjusting pay scales in response to a comprehensive employee survey. - Change is slow here. Very slow.
