      Pros

      Great people, and employee ownership sounds great on paper

      Cons

      In the past few years, the company has shifted 180 degrees. Now, the only opinion that matters is the COO. Decisions aren't made based on what is good for the company, the long term growth of the company, or the employees. The immediate perceived financial performance is the only thing that matters. No investment in employees or resources to advance AVI. No longer any path to career advancement. Rumor has it the founder and CEO are looking to leave, and they are no longer engaged. Such a shame - AVI was a fabulous company to work for just a few years ago.

      I can confirm the rumor that the founder and CEO looking to leave is false! Alive, well, and engaged - call me anytime -- Jeff Stoebner, CEO

      Pros

      Great team atmosphere. I have great co-workers. People make an effort to help each other out in solving problems... that's the ESOP mentality, ownership "we own the solution."

      Cons

      AVI has a flat organizational structure making it easy to move sideways but almost impossible to move up or be promoted from within. $6000 healthcare deductible is a essentially a pay decrease. It was most disheartening when not long after AVI purchased Dascom Group another employee told me he was rejected for asking for a $.50 hourly raise because the company "doesn't have the money."
