Pros

- Friendly, dynamic co-workers (and an office dog!) - Higher ups really do care - Small enough to know pretty much everyone - Get to try a lot of different things. - Get to meet a lot of interesting people - Many of the jobs are work-from-home remote positions

Cons

- It's a small, family run business, so everyone has to wear a lot of hats, and since the top 3 of the business are wife/husband/son, sometimes family dynamics bleed into the office. - Not a lot of growth potential. If you want to move up, you'll have to move out. Which means high turnover. - No matter what job you interview for, you'll probably have a whole different set of duties within a year. Fine if you want to try new things, not good if you've got your heart on a specific job. - Even though it's a closed office, business semi-casual is the in-office dress code. Unusual for the area, where jeans and tee-shirts are more typical for such a setting. Since most people work remote, this only applies to those who work in the home office. - On-call weekends are pretty much mandatory except in a very few positions.

Pros

You will work with great people and establish good relationships with clients and colleagues. The atmosphere is very focused on efficiency and professionalism.

Cons

There wasn't enough money in my client's budget to do as many demonstrations as they had previously told our team they wanted (we exceeded their goal with over 1000 events per month). I had to wait a month with docked pay and part-time hours (I was hired on full-time originally) so that contracts for the products we sold would be reviewed and renewed. Unfortunately, one of the products we had begun selling for this client was given to another event company, there was not enough work or money in Flair's budget to keep me on the team for more than 16 hours a week.
