Pros

The benefits are decent and most of the staff are good people.

Cons

Management is very poor and directionless. While an employee-owned company, One or two principals high on the totem pole control the place for personal gain using abusive tactics and manipulation to get their way. This has unfortunately created high turnover as the morale is lower than low. Promotions go to favorites and are based on little and not those that deserve it. A sexist environment that values looks over brains and even in those cases, very rarely are women promoted. Work / life balance is non-existent and if you have a family you'll rarely see them and will be chastised for trying. The Milwaukee office has serious issues that are ignored by the head office.

Pros

Really loved the overall culture. They really support you with a community and access to peers. The work life balance was really exceptional.

Cons

The focus on culture over training. Great to have a team mentality but to much slips through the cracks on a professional level. Toxic staff get insulated via seniority and just become untouchable.
