Pros

After 20 years in business still only 11 employees. You really have to wonder.

Cons

MICROMANAGEMENT. CONTROL NUT. No progression, low pay. You are never good at what you do. Don't believe it. You have been warned.

Not a Place to Build a Career

Pros

There are no pros to working at FabSoft. FYI - the review by the "Product Manager" is actually from the owner himself trying to balance out all of the negativity with a good review. There is no Product Manager at FabSoft.

Cons

The owner is very difficult to get along with and has major trust issues. He will forbid any type of communication both in-house with employees as well as any outside communication. He constantly tracks Internet usage and does not provide you with essential needs to work (ex. desk phone). In addition, he hires multiple people for one position and keeps his favorite while letting go of the rest. He has no consideration for your well-being (ex. electrical wires and insulation hanging from the conference room ceiling), your work/life balance (ex. no vacation time for the first year and very limited personal time), nor career building goals (ex. does not provide essential resources, and fires employees left and right). He does not listen to new ideas nor wants to answer questions about his own business, but would rather you figure out the job on your own, and then fire you when you don't know the products and the business.

This is obviously a review from the same person as the April 17th & June 14th review. We would like to encourage anyone that is interested in working for FabSoft not to listen to her reviews, as this person is just a former employee that unfortunately was let go since she didn't have the knowledge to conduct the work as specified in the job description. Unlike what she stated in her resume and interviews. Feel free to call us and ask us any question you would like regarding her accusations and we'd be more than happy to answer them.

Pros

Product Developed. Provided free breakfasts and weekly lunches. Decent health benefits.

Cons

CEO/Owner (sole manager) is a control nut. Great at computers and developing a product over the past 20+ years, but not the slightest of managerial skills. I watched handfuls of people get hired and fired through my short time with the firm. Tracks every keystroke and frowns upon having small talk throughout the day. You are expected to work for a solid 8 hours with an hour lunch break. Just not a exciting or engaging company.
