Pros

Most of the employees have great personalities and senses of humor. It is a joy to work with most of them. Unfortunately, they are SHEEP, and continue to do what the CEO tells them to do, even though he doesnt have a clue how to run his company.

Cons

The CEO wrote a book called "Financial Insanity' about the use of annuities. The real financial insanity, is the fact that he uses outdated systems and processes, that have been proven to not work. If someone suggests an system that will actually work, he dismisses them, and forges ahead. The salary is 'OK', but commissions and bonuses NEVER materialize. I had to leave before I killed myself.

Pros

The organization attracts very high quality, driven individuals which makes for an enriching and stimulating workplace. The mission of the organization requires high level thinkers, and tremendous dedication on the part of management and staff.

Cons

I don't consider this a negative, but clearly this organization is no place for the weak. Very strong personalities have very strong opinions, which make for conflict. From conflict is born innovation, however. Every organization that strives for excellence will experience the very same type of conflict. If you are a slacker, do not apply here.
