Pros

Free food. Free beer. Casual dress code.

Cons

I worked at Businessolver for a very long time (witholding length to stay anonymous), and only received a raise when I got a promotion. Don't ever expect a raise outside of getting promoted or threatening to quit. Also, don't ever expect to get recognized for the incredibly long hours that you will be required to put in, or the amount of personal life that you sacrifice for this job. I can't count the number of weekend days I spent in the office only to leave still feeling behind. The better that you do in this company, the more they will expect out of you, and they don't stop putting more on your plate until you hit your breaking point. This is the exact reason that they cannot retain some of their best talent and the exact reason that I decided to leave. The hardest working people are smarter than to stay at a company with an unmanageable work load and the people who have enough on their plate to handle are those that do a mediocre job. I also had a fantastic relationship with all of the top leaders in the company, as I started when we were a fraction of the size that we were when I left. Since the day that I gave my notice not one of them could make eye contact with me in passing until my two weeks was up. How unprofessional. Those two weeks have clouded my view of the relationship that I had with them for all of the years that I worked there.
