Pros

Beer, creative people, growth, great career stepping stone

Cons

Taphandles hire young, new graduates most of the time and then very seasoned management staff. No middle management or opportunity for moving up in the company. Has a narrow audience and client base. Salaries are on the low end for most positions if you are not senior management.

Pros

The culture of the office and most of the staff is infectious. It's the kind of place you stay at for much longer than you should, simply because it feels like a second home. Some of the leaders also have an incredible amount of passion for the company which helps push their departments, and occasionally others. If you are fresh out of college, or new in your role, then this company will be a good fit for you for at least a year or two.

Cons

The growth potential is minimal at best. The pay is low compared to the market and makes little to no sense in how it's determined. Some of the leaders are more concerned in their pursuits outside of the company, or at least outside of the office, which leads to a splintered feeling internally that's palpable depending on the day of the week. There have been many failed attempts at change, but most things end of reverting back to status quo. The Founder of the company has a ton of heart and truly tries to make it a great place to work, but in the end this place is great for people aged 20-25 or Managers, most everyone else is underpaid and underappreciated...so you better drink up.

Pros

Beer, ping pong, coffee machine, relaxed work environment. Always able to stay busy and everyone at work was nice and welcoming. Management was very accommodating when taking time off. Decent benefits

Cons

Management is not focused leading to no direction. Strategy seems to be very unclear and departments are not cohesive. Very poor IT infrastructure prevented a great deal of productivity. It was extremely slow and crashed almost daily.
