Pros

Excellent work environment, that was fun and energetic! Professional services was a new part of this 'start-up' -esk company. With such a small division of the company, it was easy to have your thoughts and opinions heard.

Cons

Although there was a willingness to hear and consider all thoughts and opinions, results were not always seen. Also, travel is a must for this position as of my last date of employment, and if they are running optimally, you will most likely travel 90%+
