Pros

The charging team consists of very talented people who are nice to work with.

Good benefits.

Cons
  • Mid-management is clueless.
  • Pay is absolutely terrible.
  • They claim there are budget constraints, but there is plenty of money to maintain appearances to customers.
  • Unskilled/non-technical managers rely on hat-tricks and abusing their techs to get through the day.
  • Terrible systems with a ton of bandaids.
  • No one truly knows what they are doing; everything is an experiment.
Advice to Management

Get over yourself. You abuse your engineers and techs all day and add 0 value.
