Pros

You get a paycheck most of the time without errors.

Cons

To start with, those positive reviews are completely fake. Like another review said, management put those reviews up. Day to day operations is handled by the emotionally unstable son in law of the owner has a bad memory, yells, acts rude, and tells woman they don't dress properly. The CEO/ owner can be a little off-putting, but is reasonable in my opinion. The other managers are fine, but are always being undermined and second guessed. Previous reviews have failed to mention the blatant discrimination. There is a double standard in how employees are treated. Those who share the same faith as management are treated better. Their mistakes will be overlooked until they create a disaster. There is no HR. It is fake and run by the owner and his wife. They don't address issues and HR constantly falls on the son in law. They walk the line of legal paid time. They give you only two sick days per year, anymore time is unpaid. When they give the jewish holiday's off, you have to be past the 60 day evaluation period. There have been many instances where people have to beg to be given a chance to come in during the weekend to make up some time. This is not always granted, and when it is, you can only work limited hours, so you never recoup the time. Your vacation time is automatically deducted for the jewish holidays and they limit you when you can take it, and how much. You cannot take more than a week off, although this is overlooked for certain people.

Pros

Working here has reminded me that the quality of a job is shaped not just by tasks, but by the tone of the environment—how people speak to each other, how decisions are made, and how mistakes are handled. This company gets those things right. Leadership The owners combine ambition with humility. They listen, they take responsibility, and they care about building something enduring. There’s no ego theater—just steady, thoughtful leadership. Culture You’re treated like an adult. Expectations are clear, ideas are welcomed, and honesty is met with curiosity rather than fear. Mistakes aren’t moral failures; they’re opportunities to improve the system. It’s a surprisingly sane and human place to work. Work & Growth Work feels purposeful rather than chaotic. The company invests in good tools, better processes, and the people who run them. You’re encouraged to think, refine, and contribute meaningfully. Colleagues People here want to succeed together. There’s kindness in the everyday interactions, which makes the hard days lighter and the good days even better. In short: It’s a rare mix of clarity, integrity, and genuine care. If you value growth, honesty, and a workplace where good people can actually do great work, you’ll thrive here.

Cons

No real “cons” in the traditional sense. All organizations have imperfections, but here they are met with honesty and a willingness to fix them. Any challenges feel like part of the natural process of building something worthwhile.
