Low pay for the workload and not much room for advancement.

Pros

Mgmt focused on growth, relatively young and aggresicvely seek new business. Understand they need to evolve with current trnds to stay relevant and profitable.

Cons

Micromanagement, sometimes unrealistic about types of customers they go after, very long sales cycles. Canada is cold but the beer is good

Thanks for your feedback. Great relevant comments for 2014. We have grown a lot since then. It says you were a contractor, so I am very glad you have posted as we sometimes don't share this aspect of our business enough. We employee close to 100 worldwide freelance contractors on a part time basis. We look for editors, illustrators, indexers, data entry clerks etc. We often see staff leave the full time office environment here and stay on part time as freelancers as they pursue others passions like school etc.
