Pros

HR and Admin is very understanding and human in the manner they handle issues.

Cons

Lack of training Lack of adherence to work safety policies Continuous effort to blame new employees for an issues and lack of learning opportunities. MD's complete lack of desire of change and apply continuous improvement for the company. MD is direction "personality bad technically good" is good employees Filing double paper work for paper and digital. Continuous and last minute information of OT despite planned workload. Complete lack of accountability from upper management. When feedback was shared reply to every single point was "did you ask?" Instead of asking themselves why a formal feedback session was needed to achieve information. Complete lack of formal job training regime from product introduction to any technical issues. Dire lack of communication

Pros

Hard working people! Honest, fair, ethical, learning how to grow with the challenges of being a global company, but on a start-up basis in the US. Excellent ideas, outstanding product.

Cons

You just have to know this is a small organization compared to it's mammoth competitors, so things move at a different pace. That CAN be an advantage, also.

Pros

I’m really enjoying working with everyone here. We all share a genuine passion for what we do each day. Plus, the new office is a cozy and peaceful place to be most of the time. And hey, when you nail a project, your coworkers often give you a shout-out to upper management!

Cons

Just a heads-up, there can be a bit of a lag in communication when we’re working with folks in Australia or Europe. Instead of getting our paychecks every two weeks on Friday, they’re usually on the 15th and the last day of the month. Also, sometimes I have to hold off on using the restroom because there aren’t enough stalls available.
