Pros
I started at Decagon as an intern. They let me continue working as I completed my degree. Because they saw potential in me they didn't mind that my degree was in an unrelated field. Decagon provides the training and experiences needed to enhance your career and experiences. I've been trusted with projects that I felt unqualified for and encouraged to succeed, not set up to fail. I truly feel that I'm pushed beyond my comfort level so that I can grow and become better and more experienced. There are many changes taking place at Decagon, and I suspect there will continue to be. I view this as a very good thing that will benefit me personally. These changes mean growth for a company that has good management. It also means there is a vision for taking the company to the next level. Decagon is very financially responsible and I don't see the changes taking place as too risky or off the wall. The overall culture at Decagon creates a workplace that is comfortable and allows for free thinking. Decagon takes care of its employees and allows for the best work/life balance I have ever experienced. There is an emphasis on health and welfare that illustrates how well Decagon appreciates the happiness of its employees. An added bonus of working at Decagon is the location. The small town of Pullman, and neighbor Moscow, Idaho, is a center for outdoor activities, hard working people, youthful energy (two universities), and rural simplicity. Because of Decagon and the experiences I've been afforded and the potential for career advancement I have set roots on the Palouse. Some of the other reviewers are being fair, there are favorites. However, management favors those that work hard and align their work with the goals of the company. Decagon started as a family business, intended to support the children and grandchildren of the founders. Even though the company is growing this is still one of the main reason Decagon operates. As a privately held company I don't see anything wrong with this approach. Those that feel differently aren't a good fit for Decagon. All that being said, Decagon and its upper and middle management care a great deal about all its employees and do what they can, given the circumstances, to support and grow its employees.
Cons
Decagon has been growing for many years. They double in size about every five years. To sustain this growth changes have to take place. Change can sometimes be constant and as a company grows from operating in a garage to a rented room all the way to having its own property there are going to be pains. At the moment there aren't enough parking spaces, but even that it getting fixed.
