Pros

Great benefits and office location when you go into the office.

Cons

They give titles away like candy to retain employees.

I worked with people that had staff titles but were not staff-level engineers. They would send me garbage, and I would have to show them how to do their job.

I would suggest getting all the resumes of people in your group to really understand their skill set.

No one in one of my groups had ever produced a successful product.

Workload is crazy. All they worry about is delivering something on time for upper management. This does not give you time to evaluate and deliver an optimized device.

I feel this is counter to their environmental mission.

Advice to Management

Hire talent experienced in the job position given.
