Pros

Good compensation and benefits. Travel opportunities, meet with clients. The job as an AE provides a good mix of software and hardware tasks. I had a knowledgeable and supportive manager.

  • Tight deadlines all the time.
  • Lots of overtime hours without pay.
  • Documentations are messy sometimes.
Advice to Management
  • When people work hard and do a good job, promote them.
