Pros

Although the benefits are limited to health insurance only, the cost to employees is low compared to other companies

Cons

Absolute utter disorganized chaos. Low salary with extremely high workload. They keep losing people and forcing existing employees to take on their workload with no pay increase. Favoritism is rampant and most decisions are based on emotion, not logic. Even at the highest level.
