Would Not Recommend
Sr. Director of Engineering • Current Employee
March 4, 2024
Pros: Free lunch, 7 weeks of PTO (2 mid-summer, 2 at year-end, 3 employee's choice), which is needed to recover from the work stress.
Cons: Poor pay, long hours, no profit sharing, non-reliable bonus pay-off, and poor 401k matching.
This is a 30-year-old company with a start-up mentality from management and no strategy structure.
No one is in control, and everyone wants control.
It's a toxic workplace, with alcohol and weapons being allowed in the buildings, both approved by HR.
