Pros

Offices are cool. Salary is good if you ask for it.

Cons

Incompetent leadership team. Not leaders at all. Very questionable ethics. Middle management has no life outside of work. Product quality keeps getting worse.

Pros

Getting a bonus every quarter. Gets a half year off when you have a child. 6 months for women and 3 months for men.

Cons

Front office is treated like they own the company, get lunches weekly, custom made shoes, while manufacturing get 2 slices of pizza at quarterly meeting. No communication within the whole company. Losing great people because they want to pay kids straight out of college.

Horrible Management

Pros

- For me pay was good compared to other companies. - Always got sunlight inside at desk, but I was front office

Cons

- Management is horrible. Just out of Harvard or buddies with someone. Not much common sense or how companies should really work and lots of desire to pad resumes. - Workload is not distributed accordingly. Will find a few people who know what they are doing and the rest are just there to be somewhere. - Like to say they are start up in nature but in reality they are always just trying the latest but not always the greatest. - The building that they tout as awesome is just like the rest of the place all show and no depth. Layout was unconducive to get a good days of work, most items didn't work(like the microwaves). This didn't matter to them as long as they had cool looking desks at the front for people to see.
