Pros

No pros that I could find at all.

Cons

Low pay, minimal benefits, very cheap and unprofessional management that look down on their employees. The company is growing but the only people benefitting from it are the owners (CEO/COO). They have no respect for your time, your opinions, and tend to seriously micromamage. You will hear all about their family, their children, their accomplishments, their wants, their needs, etc., but nothing like that related to the employees is relevant to them.

The fact that you have no pros listed, clearly show how hurt you are and I am really sorry you feel the way you feel. We do not look down on employees, but absolutely look down on poor performance. We will try to do a better job communicating to ensure that this difference is recognized in our interactions. For potential employees in future reading this, note that the management has no intention to lower the performance standards, and will not tolerate poor performance. Respect is only earned by excellent performance. We believe in candor, and unlike large corporations where there is an opportunity to "slide by" there is no room to hide. Trust - but Verify - that is how we operate. Join us, but only if you feel you are among the top of your game. Otherwise, it will be a miserable experience for both - you, us.

Cons

Pros

I hope they can create some good things. I have seen none.

Cons

While the company presents itself as employee-focused, my experience did not reflect that in practice. Support for employees is minimal once you are placed on a contract. The primary emphasis appears to be on maximizing billable revenue, with far less attention paid to employee development, technical growth, or long-term career planning. Engineers often feel more like assets being sold to clients than professionals being invested in. Management involvement tends to surface mainly when there are contract concerns or billing-related issues, rather than when employees need guidance, advocacy, or support. When challenges arise on a project, employees are largely expected to handle them independently, even when issues stem from unclear requirements or poor client-side planning. There is also a noticeable gap between how roles are described internally versus how work is actually performed on contract. Expectations can shift after placement, and employees are left to adapt without meaningful backing from leadership. This creates a sense that individuals are being “disguised” to fit client needs, rather than being honestly positioned or protected. Career progression is unclear, and feedback is limited. Promotions and raises do not appear to be tied to technical contribution or workload, making it difficult to feel valued beyond your billing rate. Overall, the company may work for those seeking short-term contract placement, but engineers looking for genuine support, transparency, and long-term professional growth may find the environment disappointing.
