      Very smart people, but an overwhelming amount of politics that often conflicts with doing right for the customer.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Relatively fluid environment, routinely work at home or at 1 of 2 offices. Opportunity to exchange with very bright co-workers.

      Cons

      Poor level of motivation due to an atmosphere of profound politics. The customer was often an afterthought to the goal for the quarter. Far, far too many layers of management.

      Outdated management and frequent layouffs

      Anonymous employee

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Employee level culture is great. Smart people building great products. Decent perks. Decent pay.

      Cons

      Outdated legacy upper management making mistakes and feckless when challenged. CEO talks out of both sides if his mouth, saying one thing then doing the opposite. Layoffs are a reoccurring theme when the shareholders aren't making enough money even though it's a profitable company.
