Pros

The people I work with are intelligent, hardworking and care about the work they do. The industry is interesting, always changing and therefore challenging. Location is great!

Cons

There has been a lot of turmoil lately. Many people are more interested in building personal empires than doing what is best overall for the health of the company.

Pros

Can’t think of 1. Not even 1.

Cons

Pay is the lowest compared to similar company with the same role. Upper management speaks to staff with a patronizing tone; cutting them off, and talking down to them. At times it felt like they purposefully were attempting to find things wrong instead of working together as a team to meet objectives. Understaffed. Fully expected to do the work of a team of 6 despite being a team of 2 for example.
