Pros
  • Unlimited PTO
  • Salary is good
Cons
  • Bad management.
  • Not a great place for women engineers. Please stay away if you have goals to advance.
  • Feels like a playground for only white and Indian men.
  • Bad culture (worse than having no culture).
  • Due to jobs moving to India/offshore, there are more layoffs and politics in the US.
  • Bad working environment.
Advice to Management
  • Improve transparency.
  • Think about how to encourage people to grow and feel like they are part of something good.
  • Have a process for people to advance in their career goals. Currently, there is no accountability, and it feels like the Wild West. We are in the 21st century; we can do better.
