Pros
1. A lot of great people work or have worked here (not including upper management), some are incredibly brilliant, dedicated and full of personality. 2. Somewhat relaxed work environment 3. Good benefits 4. Flexible schedule
Cons
1. Main mission of company is delusional and doomed to failure, the future of restaurant ordering and payments are apps and BYOD, not putting a custom tablet on every table. The logistics involved in running a software, hardware, and managed services company on a start up budget are practically impossible to overcome. 2. CEO is sexist, clueless, arrogant and in no way qualified to run even the smallest of companies. He is cheap, completely unprofessional, untrustworthy and out of his depth in almost every category. He does not recognize or respect his most valuable employees and after awhile you begin to realize that everything that comes out of his mouth is a manipulation or complete lie. 3. Upper management is outclassed and overpaid. People get promoted only if they agree with everything the CEO says and are personally liked by the CEO. These individuals are then placed into lofty positions that they are in no way equipped to handle and then given massive pay raises which neither fit their skill level or experience. These people are usually buddy buddy with the CEO and arrogant to the core. 4. The pay is terrible for the area. The money you should be getting paid will instead be divided amongst the CEO's chosen few. Development engineers are paid vastly more than any other functional group (even if their job is no more critical or technical) but even the average dev is limited in respect to the CEO's golden boys... and I do mean boys because he despises women. 5. They are constantly bleeding talent; the turn over rate is flat out insane. People are jumping ship left and right because they get fed up with the favoritism and idiocy displayed by the CEO and upper management. And god forbid they discover how much more money their unqualified boss or the devs make, because they will rage quit in a heart beat. It's really a shame because a lot of hard work goes into finding and hiring excellent talent. Then the upper management comes along and ruins all that hard work. 6. Expect to work insane hours, give your complete devotion to the company and never be compensated or even acknowledged for it. If fact you will probably just be made to feel guilty for not working even more.
