Pros

If you enjoy working for a smaller sized Company this is a great place to work. They are experiencing a lot of growth and the pains are there - but for those people who have worked a while it is very apparent that this is an exciting place to be. Working for a smaller Company gives you great exposure and the experience to not be boxed into doing one thing over and over. There are a lot of great people working here and the managers are really nice. I have not experienced a "closed door" policy which another person brought up. I think the reality is that the Company is headed in the right direction and I am excited to be here.

Cons

It has been frustrating to deal with the construction of the new space but now that it is done the office looks really great. I think that if we could have more regularly scheduled company meetings it would help.

Pros

The best part about WSOL is being able to work from home and make your own schedule based on when you are available to work. If you have doctor appointments this week, maybe working evenings will work out best. If you have kids in school, maybe you want to work while they are in school and have your evenings free. You can make your schedule work for you week to week. No commuting, no sitting in traffic, no filling up the gas tank constantly!

Cons

Because you work at home, there will always be distractions from pets, family members, people coming to the front door. You have to schedule to work when there is a quiet atmosphere and not alot of background noise. You need to keep a copy of your schedule and work the hours that you have taken and be conscientious. You are essentially your own boss, and signing in to work on time and working when you sign up to work is very important. There aren't many cons to this job, but there are no paid vacation days or compehensive benefits. Also if you are a people person, you may miss being with other people. I am just fine working with "virtual" colleagues, so it doesn't bother me at all.
