I can not recommend working for this company.
Pros
Some of the employees where great to work with. Smart young people.
Cons
The owner. The owner. The owner. I can not recommend working for this guy. But if you do decide to apply, here are some questions to ask in your interview: what does it mean for a company to be "self insured"? What is the turnover rate for this company in the the past 2 years? What percentage of new features are created/coded by interns vs foreign guest visa labor vs regular full time employees with citizenship? What is your opinion on bonuses? Are they to be used as uncommitted incentives for future performance (ie a carrot on a stick) or a reward for hard work and successful delivery of the past year'service? Do you believe interns are the future of our country's success or are they low cost expendable tools to be refreshed ever year? What is the age distribution of your non-management employees? Will you disclose your company's financials for the past five years so that I may get an indication of what It may be like working for you in the next couple years? Would one or both of the owners ever sell their Telsas to meet employee bonus commitments? Has your company ever engaged in lawsuits with customers or competitors? Has your company ever not paid a contractor? Has your company ever indicated to an employee that their unemployment would not be contested but then contest it after they left? These are just question that I'm sure they can answer honestly. Why should an interview only be about the employee when your potential relationship is a two way street that will affect YOUR life as much as their benefit employing you. ask them tough question just as they would ask you tough questions.
