Great company to work for

Pros: Anyone in the company is empowered to improve current processes.
The hierarchy feels pretty flat, and everyone is very approachable.
Although pretty big, it still has a small, family-like culture.
The company values have real meaning that can be seen throughout the company.
Cons: The only thing I am worried about is preserving the same culture and values as we continue to grow.

EDG is not the place you want to be
Applications Support Engineer • Current Employee
Natick, Massachusetts, United States
May 22, 2015
Pros: Good name in the industry.
Good compensation.
Motivation to move out from EDG.
Smart peers.
Cons: Management in EDG doesn't care about ASE's career development or learning. All they want to do is save their a** and look good in front of higher management. The program is portrayed as one which gives flexibility and freedom to pursue your interests, but that is rarely the case. Managers start thrusting some stupid timelines and documents on you and will keep wanting you to do more technical support in the name of "Leadership Qualities."

Has its advantages, but certainly in need of improvement
Applications Support Engineer • Current Employee
Natick, Massachusetts, United States
May 23, 2015
Pros: Great, intelligent people to work with.
Decent work-life balance (nice to have a gym on campus, etc.).
The company feels "young," which is nice for new graduates.
Cons: - Low pay (we shouldn't have to rely on a stakeholder bonus to get a halfway decent salary)
- Management is in general pretty awful
- Too much emphasis on procedures and bureaucracy
- Difficult to get promoted (not based on merit – my manager even told me I just haven't been here long enough)
