Pros
  • Great benefits.
  • Lots of culture.
  • Leadership actually knows what they're doing.
  • Profit share bonus. (Not a guarantee, but they try and give it to us every year)
  • Free gifts. (For Christmas and random free stuff every now and then)
Cons

Many employees complain about low pay, although the company has recently started taking big steps to address this.

Promotions are not given out when the employee is ready. Instead, they're given out twice a year and only to a handful of employees on each team. This results in some people having to wait years for their promotion despite having been ready for it.

Based in Irvine, which is a very expensive city to live in.

Advice to Management

Go back to promoting when ready. There are far too many overqualified employees on many of the teams. They are doing far more work than is expected of them because they are constantly chasing that promotion that may or may not come this year.
