      The overall concept of the company is great but management needs some revamping.

      Pros

      The companies overall benefits are great. Contributions to the 401k, stock purchase incentives, and PTO.

      Cons

      Sr Managers and Directors lack ownership and willingness to make decisions. Some Sr Managers and Director's are immature and if for whatever reason they don't like you personally. They make it their business to make your life miserable. The engineers decisions are not trusted and decisions are made without their input. The cheapest tool wins! No matter if it can do the job or not.

      Pros

      Great location. Awesome relocation package. Good pay package.

      Cons

      Top-down culture. Lack of decision making. Very common to see promotions NOT based on experience or skills required for the job.
