Pros

Zero the company decided it cannot get client work and continues to purchase companies for clients. I was told about this and to buy stock. Sec needs to step in

Cons

Zero the company is awful and guess what employees aren’t the greatest assets. IT department is a swingers club All will John because you lose your job if you don’t swing

Pros

Flexible work schedule. PTO is pretty standard.

Cons

So many...mediocre benefits in general. Upper management is usually hired from outside rather than promoted from within. Way too much corporate focus on acquisitions rather than fostering growth with existing employees.
