Pros
Friendly and hard-working coworkers at the lower and middle level who are dedicated to their industry, craft, and developing further expertise, and clearly love what they do. Company works at maintaining a positive public profile.
Cons
Lack of understanding at the management level of how some of the industries they have branched into function. Caution is advised before accepting a full-time position here, as they overextend into exciting new projects that bolster the company image and that require additional staff, but then—at a change in plan or lack of continued interest at the top—have been known for periodic individual firings and wider layoffs. It’s a calculated risk to work here, so go in with eyes open.
