Pros

Many good people have and still do work there. They have a very interesting niche, with a great value proposition for what they do. Lots of possibilities as a company. You can almost always work just an 8 hour day.

Cons

A truly horrible place to work. By far, the worst place I have worked in my entire career. You don't really realize how utterly bad it is until you are actually gone. It's kind of like an abusive relationship. You think the problems are you, and the seemingly right things are said to you at the right time, and you don't leave. But then finally you come to the realization that it isn't a good place to be at all, and you find the strength and the inner resolve to believe in yourself and get the heck out. You see all those articles that talk about good bosses and good management? This company is the antithesis of all of those. First level management is generally just fine. The problem stems from the very top. But management hands are tied, and they are bypassed and overruled on a regular basis. My recommendation to anyone considering going to work for here: Look up former employees on LinkedIn. Get the straight scoop from them.

Pros

Where to start... First off, I'd like to say, I don't die a little inside every morning when my alarm clock goes off. I'm excited to see what the day holds. Open Scan Technologies is a wonderful place to work for the right person. Culture fit, really is everything here. We have a friendly, outgoing, motivated team. There are constantly fun little perks to the job; company paid Thai Massage and Teeth Whitening during the holidays, beer Friday to celebrate a success, game night, go-kart racing, karaoke and happy hour. We work as a team and play as a team. OS has a very competitive benefits package with the employee’s health insurance cost covered. Not only is the cost covered but the plan options are GREAT! If you are looking to advance your career and pick up some new skills along the way, this is the place to be. There are employees who started in a non-management role, and worked their way up into a Management, Director and Executive level.

Cons

It’s a smaller group so with that being said there can be cross over between departments. The attitude of "that's not my job" won't stick here. Just like with any organization, communication isn't always perfect. Its not bad either.

Pros

I have worked at OPEN SCAN for a little over 6 months and wake up every day thankful that I decided to make the move rather than taking other former employee's on this sites words for it. The company not only pays highly competitive salaries but also provides an incredible benefits package beyond what most companies offer (free medical, dental & vision insurance for employees) including other various perks (Gym w/ showers, free cross fit trainer, Thai Massages, Teeth Whitening, etc....). The building is amazing, the core management is strong & functional, communication between departments is healthy & ALL of your teammates are supportive! Taking into consideration the recent growth of the company and road that leads ahead the possibilities are endless!

Cons

Open Scan Technologies is not an atmosphere that harvests the weak! If you are unable to hold to your commitments or handle constructive criticism don't bother! On the other hand, if you want an employer that provides true feedback enabling your growth & recognition of your personal/professional achievements; you'll NEVER regret making the decision to join this group!
