Pros

Little supervision company wide bonuses Product give away makes it easy to make sales quotas and show bogus revenue numbers Unlimited frat parties, drinking, food at expensive hotels. Free t shirts, mugs, pens.

Cons

Dealing with very upset customers almost everyday Software not as reliable as advertised Company has very high expenses that could be eliminated Interview room system is pathetic and unreliable. No division leader, software features promised but never delivered. Zero support Quarterly employee purge No long term vision Salaries not competitive. Preferential treatment given to ivy league graduates on day one. CEO is hiding in his "bat cave" unable to see the light.

Pros

I enjoyed working for TASER. I started off as a worker on the X26 line and worked my way up in the 10 years I worked at TASER. I always learned something new everyday. The co workers at the time was great to work with. The pay was not bad. Free coffee and soda. Work out equipment and showers. Great products that worked (I have exposed to the TASER products 7 times). All the higher ups were approachable. My name is Josh Durr

Cons

If you did not go to Harvard you most likely won't go far. I left the company because i had no life outside of work due to traveling schedule (traveling 3 weeks out of the month and some weekends). I asked to be moved to a "desk job". After a month of no talk about my move and seeing people (Harvard golden children) getting moved or Promoted to positions that were not open to anyone to interview for, I put in my two week notice.

Pros

If you can get past the new interview scheme which includes Mensa questions (likely the senior team wants an answer to), you quickly can rise to your level of incompetence. There you can bask in praising Rick and being his next pull toy.

Cons

Simple. Expect low pay. Expect to report up to an executive you're smarter than. Do not expect your opinions to be valued. If you voice your opinion on paper, months later you will get your own walking papers unless you're a buddy of the senior team.
