Pros

When I started it was one of the best places, they say you will move up in the company. Don't stay in a position too long because you will be stuck there. Insurance is good though.

Cons

Communication is non-existent. If you are one of the hard workers you don't get looked at as something good, you get looked at as doing something bad.

Pros

Great people, smart people. With new CEO, maybe things will get back

Cons

Been a horrible last 3 years. Non-stop re-offs, new leadership that cut everyone and brought in new people who don’t know anything. No clear priorities, no leadership.
