Pros

-Relaxed work environment. -Most middle management is great. -Exposure to a lot of different roles and responsibilities (for better or for worst).

Cons

-Top executives are out of touch with the reality of working at a startup, and are major problems for efficient operating. -No accountability for executives or employees in leadership positions, creating a roadblock for any progress made by junior staff. -Out of toner? Out of luck. There's no operations manager/coordinator/administrative assistant. -All the good employees leave... for good reason. -Inferior compensation for those who are not in leadership positions.

Pros

Good Culture, knowledgeable, and professional team. Flexible hours and CEO trusts employees to make decisions. Because it is a small company, one can be exposed to many disciplines and have the opportunity to wear several hats.

Cons

The parent company can be difficult to work with. Colliding strategies and perspectives have caused a segmented feeling amongst the parent and other subsidiaries.

Pros

Laid Back Environment , casual dress code, 3 Weeks of Vacation time per year, Public transportation reimbursement.

Cons

Unorganized- no formal processes or procedures, lacking communication, poor reporting structure. Multiple layoffs caused employees to take on excessive responsibilities and become over worked. No review process and no raises. Building is infested with bugs. A lot of "office drama"; lots of employees who take things personal and retaliate - Makes for an uncomfortable working environment.
