Pros

bonus paid out consistantly, there are good people working in different roles who care. Growing company so there should be opportunities.

Cons

The CEO asked for feedback, so here it is. His children are employed here and promoted quickly. There are strong suggestions about how to get ahead, being friendly with one of his sons. There is an old boys network. All employees need training on how to deal with minorities and bias. Quit focusing on bonus and just increase pay for cost of living- annual raises don't cover increasing cost of medical plan (which is terrible). Fire people who have been around forever and don't perform, it's hurting everyone when folks are employed who shouldn't be. Stop mandating a donation to charity and blacklisting people who don't participate, that is illegal and immoral.
