Pros
There is a pay check. Usually.
Cons
Definition of micro management. Terrible owner to employee relations. You WILL be treated like trash. You WILL be expected to work 60-70 hours a week and get paid for 40. Don't even ask for overtime pay. When you first start, the owner will be your best friend. Two weeks later he will be ripping you to anyone that will listen. This is a software company that uses outdated EVERYTHING. VB6 shop and can't figure out why their software is going downhill. Refuses to listen to suggestions. His way or you're out. Will promise bonuses, and rarely come through. Will demand you use your own cell phone when traveling, and offer no reimbursement. Highest stress environment you can imagine. Most stress could easily be avoided and vastly improve working environment and employee morale if the owner would listen to ideas and get a clue in general of how people should be treated. Owner constantly over promises to customers and then sits back and lets support staff take the verbal beatings and then will also verbally rip the support staff when they can't deliver to the customer what was promised and doesn't even exist! Sadly, all this is just the tip of the iceberg for this company. Steer clear.
