Pros

Good teammates, projects, and pay structure.

Cons
  • NO PARKING ON CAMPUS!!

They expect employees to find public/street parking nearby and walk almost a mile to reach work. The way we found out was by parking tickets; no internal communication was provided about the new rules. What kind of workplace is that?

  • DELIBERATE DELAY IN INTERNAL GREEN CARD application process by immigration team. Every little thing (wage determination, ETA filing, etc.) takes almost triple the time it used to take a year ago.

  • ANNOUNCING REMOVAL OF INTERNAL FEEDBACK FORUM with very little notice. Multiple people have expressed support against the removal, as no alternate channel was provided.

  • A few other cons include:

    • No 401k match/orthodontic coverage in the first year.
    • Sub-standard free Friday lunch.
    • Only 6 holidays per year (only 5 since most work on Thanksgiving).
    • Horrible middle management.
