      Pros

      Great people to work with.

      Cons

      In general there was great communication by management; unfortunately some of the supervisors should not have been allowed to manage people.

      Pros

      There is a tremendous amount of freedom to explore and develop ideas. The company is very conservative when it comes to CAPEX for asset development, but it is not impossible to move a project forward - all it takes is passion and commitment to a good idea.

      Cons

      The organization is largely matrix managed. Movement for such an organization tends to be slower than smaller, more nimble, entrepaneurial organizations. The cautious management style minimizes expensive mistakes, but also results in an inability to take advantage of a rapidly evolving market.

      Pros

      Everyone is overall friendly and the benefits and pay are good for the area. The company really thinks highly of it's employees and treats them very well. What ever you need to do your job you pretty much get it. Tuition reimbursement and 401K are GREAT. The president of the company really cares and wants everyone to be happy and make the business productive.

      Cons

      Some long time employees are bitter and have bad attitudes, they can be difficult to work with. Everyone is not held accountable for their job and workloads are not always even. More structure, training and career guidance would be helpful. IT can be difficult to work with. Communication is not a strong point in US or Europe. Not a lot of room for career growth.
