Smart people all around, and you feel like going to work every day, which wasn't the case at my last job. Management empowers engineers to innovate and gives them ample freedom to experiment. You will be surprised how transparent the company is; you can walk up and talk to anyone, from the CEO or CTO.Cons: Base salary could be higher, but I guess we are paying the price for other incentives. Sometimes I feel that there is a lack of engineering challenges, given the nature of the business, and I feel my talent is underutilized.
