Avantages
The company has invested money in equipment. Not the consumables needed to keep the equipment running, but they have spent money on equipment.
Inconvénients
The management will tell you every lie under the sun to get you to join them. The "fantastic opportunity" you will be offered is basically being somebody with the duties and responsibilities of a mid level supervisor but without any of the rewards or pay. Many long term employees are on their final warning and/or under a Sword Of Damocles style threats which creates a very nasty "dog eat dog" environment when things go wrong. Job is incredibly unstable, people come and go at an alarming rate for such a small company. No breaks. Like none. Zero. (Seriously). You have to wait three months for your first paycheck. (Seriously). As previously mentioned in older reviews, many of the management simply refuse to listen to anyone. Unrealistic workloads and delivery times. You will be expected to drop everything to be there in evening and weekends whenever there is a backload of work at extremely short notice. There is no option to say no (Sword Of Damocles comes out etc) Lot of people living in the past (I did this, I worked here, I achieved this) but seem very bitter about their current work predicament. Creates a very uncomfortable "I'm better then him/her/you" environment.
