It's just business, nothing personal

Pros

Great group of people. Coffee, fruit, donuts, team building events, fair pay

Cons

Management has NO loyalty to the employees. If revenue is down that week, someone has to be cut. Even if they were hired in three weeks ago. But don't worry, they might be hired back a few weeks later. Keep your head down, don't draw any attention - positive or negative.

Pros

Big position, little pay jobs that help boost your resume as one review said on here. Alot of hands on experience and self-figuring out to do your job but it really helps you when you move on to work for real properties.

Cons

very poor training, policy enforcing guidelines are iffy, CHEAP ownership/management. You have to put in to get out. Alot of unqualified people in positions that are too important to keep the company afloat. Everyone I talk to that has worked for this man (a good 7 or 8 employees), has had pretty much the same opinion of him (narcissistic, cheap, clueless, selfish, etc). He's the Donald Sterling of BizX. Someone with a lot of money and resources, and at the same time incompetent of seeing he's running his business into the ground, nor caring enough to be hands on and do something about it.

Pros

You'll get some back-end experience with Drupal if you do anything related to their websites which is certainly valuable. It was a fine entry-level job to land out of college for learning the realities of the work force and what you must do to find something you will actually be happy doing. Very little micromanaging.

Cons

When I was working here, the company was very big on black-hat SEO tactics. The CEO's methodology for doing things was a few years into the past of any real SEO-driven company. Work was incredibly mind-numbing; there was no clear incentive structure, not call for doing a good job. If you did more than expected, it would go unnoticed or they'd quietly just expect that amount of turnaround as the norm. Basically, a perfect place to learn how to achieve the bare minimum, which is a morale-killer.
