Pros
-Stock options earlier on but they dwindled down to offering nothing over time -Opportunity to move up quickly but usually only if you were one of the handful of early on employees or you suck up to middle management
Cons
-very poor healthcare -no 401K match -widespread and acceptable drug use, including people from entry level to senior management. Don't expect a drug test because half their employees would fail. -understaffed/overworked environment that burns people out quickly -middle management is full of people with no clue how to manage people and a handful of people in positions only because they have been at the company for a long time (and have clearly proved they cannot lead) -the company has a vision but execs have little understanding what is actually going on outside of their own walls and thus middle management is given freedom to run whatever direction satisfies them personally -the CEO is extremely out of touch with employees, surprisingly at a hovering 100 employee count. Nice person but doesn't motivate the ranks at all -the company constantly changes direction so it's hard to know from year to year what will be expected next and proves their long term vision is dicey at best This company's ship has long sailed. They tag themselves as first to market but spend more of their time poking at the competition than taking a good hard look at the gaps in the product. They continue to miss that to be the best you must invest actual money into things (talent, marketing etc) Their best bet at this point is being bought out so the investors can recoup their money and at best break even.
