Pros

There are no Pros, Except for a few good people...

Cons

Mirco Managment to the extreme. Low(no) employee morale. Workplace bullying and watch you like a hawk. No flex time or flexibility at. The office is grey and depressing. No talking allowed, CEO does not encourage team environment. I learned a lot about office politics here...

Pros

Very fast turn around, mostly one-off/unique designs, local projects that are high profile. Fun projects. Each day is different and you can learn a lot of different production methods and how to utilize a lot of different materials & finishes.

Cons

Limited to no chance for promotion/advancement. Poor employee management. Everyone works unpaid overtime; do not expect to work a 5-day a week, 8 hour day. The promise it to "make it up" when the project ends; but there is always another project behind. If you use vacation or earned time off they make you feel guilty for leaving them shorthanded. Now they have begun using out-of-country detailers, so the quality of the shop drawings has dropped and the shop labor is expected to make it work anyway.

Pros

It has benefits and regular paychecks.

Cons

A CEO that is so obsessed with productivity that he forgets his staff are human, underpaid staff, a guy who won’t look women in the eye or speak to them, Trump voters, nepotism, unhappy clients, and a high turnover rate. That thing where it isn’t your job but you’re going to do it anyway and not get paid more. So if you enjoy being glared at if you take a break you should definitely apply. A huge bonus of you love a CEO that regularly snaps at his employees and is most definitely a racist.
