Pros

Salaries paid are at or above average. The company is privately owned thus the President and CEO can make decisions that would likely result in shareholder disapproval if public. Many of the employees are excellent at their job and enjoy the work they do.

Cons

The President is proud of having a near 60% new hire turnover rate. Senior management makes it known that if employees make it two years they are golden and then anticipated to be lifers. In contrast to the above noted Pro, the President makes all decisions in the company. Running the company is the life of the President and this is the expectation for the staff.

Pros

Working from home, dress code, commute

Cons

Working from home..... this can get old quickly, poor training techniques. Everything seems to be very reactionary and not thought out very well. That is the most surprising since so many little things are over analyzed and micromanaged to the point where it's hilarious, until of course you realize you're waist deep in it yourself. You'll see a salary offer higher than what you may from other jobs simply because they have a hard time keeping people, I remember one month seeing 6 employees leave, which for company of 80 people or so is a lot. Management seems to move around very often too, which is unsettling if you're an employee, everything always seems to have a hint of shadiness to it as well. For myself I had planned to evaluate the job after an extended period of time, but within 3-4 months I realized that they didn't really seem like a very good company to work for and the type of work that I was doing, was basically a dead end unless I planned to sign on for the long haul. I really think there would be more turn over here, but I'd guess 60-70% of the people do stay on for the ability to work from home. For me it wasn't worth it, I tried to think back to a previous job that I absolutely dreaded going to more and I could not match it, not even when I was washing dishes as a 16 yr old for the summer.
