Pros

Located near Boston.

End products were interesting.

Cons

Long hours expected without compensation. Very slow promotion. Very small salaries. Pay freezes and small raises.

Advice to Management

I saw two people get fired via email. I was micromanaged by no less than three managers, who had to ask me about projects that they should have been asking each other about. There is a huge breakdown of communication with management. Corporate only comes down to speak to the engineers when something is terribly wrong, and even then, they usually make them wait in a conference room for no less than 30 minutes before arriving.
