Pros

Remote and pretty independent. After a few months of training, you are left alone to do your job.

Cons

Proposal Writer job is titled "Bid Manager Specialist" and salary is 30-35k. Very expensive health insurance options. They advertise a commission structure, but it barely applies to this role (You will receive something like .01%)

Pros

Everyone at the company is great, probably the best coworkers and leadership I've had in my career. It's also definitely a place where if you work hard and do your job well you are rewarded.

Cons

The health insurance has pretty high employee cost but that's really the standard if you aren't working at a big corporation.

Pros

- Very friendly people - Remote work - If you have zero experience on your resume and really need a job + experience this is an ok option

Cons

- You will not make good money at this company, They pay 18/hr (on salary) and that is the pay for (most) employees regardless of the position - You MUST start on a 1099 for the first 3 months - you won't become salaried until the 90 day mark - There isn't very much growth opportunity, nor is the company willing to give you a raise. If you want a raise, expect many additional tasks to be put on your plate, as well as a very close eye kept on you. - They will fire employees who want more money. We had a great employee on the team who really cared about his work, and went above and beyond. They refused to give this individual a promotion then said "he left before he got fired"
