Pros
Friendly people. Casual, somewhat laid back atmosphere. Opportunities to rise above the average employee. The company is growing, which is a positive in many ways, but not in others.
Cons
Growth has not be matched in scale across the various pillars which are the reason for the growth. The morale one of the major support teams is a constant battle to maintain as the demand for output is high. The proverbial positive harvest in terms of dollars and company, financial goals don't appear to match the weight of work load on this support group.
Advice to Senior Management

Pros
Radiant is a large company with a small company mentality. Not a lot of structure for individual jobs - you'll love it if you like freedom to make improvements where you see fit, you'll hate it if you need a lot of structure and direction.
Cons
Very hard to promote within this company. Leadership is a very tight knit group, and like many other companies, it's who you know more than what you do that gets you promoted.
Advice to Senior Management
Continuously seek out opportunities to make Radiant the best place to work - not just strive to be on par with other companies.
Pros
The people, pay and benifits.
Cons
Customer whining and technical challenges within
Advice to Senior Management
Give praise more often
