INCOMPETENT MANAGEMENT

Pros

Great Benefits Flexible- ability to work from home If given the time, the ability to learn about the industry from the different types of projects assigned to.

Cons

Not a 9 to 5 job- overtime is the norm. SOP's are a joke. They lack enough specificty for employees to be able to follow them. Lack of organization. Everyone is doing their own thing. Incompetent Management- Upper level management have been promoted based on social connections and not their ability to actually do their job.

Pros

A fast paced enviroment, great for those who are eager to progress and gain exposure to many different types of projects. A very flexible employer in my experience.

Cons

Salaries aren't the best and it is often not a 9 to 5 job. For me, job satisfaction is more important.
