Pros

The culture on my team was laid back, and the work was interesting at times. I liked my manager and teammates. There is a very nice gym at the new office, along with a lot of freedom and little oversight. We had tons of hardware to play with.

Cons

Upward movement took way too long. They renewed my contract but I got bored before it was possible to get hired on as a W2 employee; many of the guys there have been working the same job for like 5+ years. Also, the work itself, which is SSD firmware validation, is a lot like watching paint dry. Your mileage may vary.

Advice to Management

Pick up the pace a bit, not in a stress way, but like let the young guys grow and do more interesting things.
