Pros

Software use: Free Office 365 and discounted products.

Health benefits: Free for employees.

Extremely casual environment.

Peers were easy to work with.

Cons

Middle management was worried about their career and not their people.

Upper management does not care about the workers, contradicting what they advertise.

There is no encouragement to improve skills.

There are no training or conference budgets.

The boss manages by intimidation, forcing employees to work late hours and weekends to finish over-promised projects.

The boss takes praise and points blame to employees; they take no ownership.

Advice to Management

Look how your middle managers are getting rid of staff!
