Pros

Cons

too much focus on flashy things rather than substance a small percentage of execs have a bad idea of work-life balance (they don't have families and they expect others to act the same)

Pros

1. Mission of the company is " Save Lives and Protect Truth". It is great knowing everyday that what you are doing is making actual difference in people's lives. 2. Getting to work with some incredibly smart people 3. Fun events like Halloween and Annual Holiday Party 4. Lunch and Learn events 5. Getting to watch people 'Tased' 6. Appreciates employees who contributes towards savings

Cons

1. Dismal work life balance:- Taser tries to operate like a startup where reality is that it's not! This is a 500+ employee company and needs to realign its business strategy to reflect that 2. Talented but inexperienced upper management:- Many of the top management is very young and even though there are very smart, it has to be realized that no amount of smartness can replace for actual experience. Decision driven by this inexperience is often a cause of confusion and unnecessary complications for employees down the chain

In the midst of massive change

Pros

TASER is changing the technological landscape in public safety. What was once a company with a single flagship product is now a fast-growing, software-driven company with a platform of innovative technologies. There is no shortage of projects to work on, and the people you get to work on them with are top of the line.

Cons

The massive change in momentum has brought some turmoil, including the majority of the company having been around for <2 years. This feels more significant in a 20 year old company than it does in a startup, and the change of pace can be a bit much for some people.
