Pros

Pay and benefits are good. The ability to learn new tech is available and encouraged. Several awesome employees. Cool office space.

Cons

Poor communication. Lack of direction. Constantly changing vision and chasing new things. An inability to see anything through. Very frustrating. Would speak up, but too scared. Misogyny. Veiled racism. Bias. Nepotism. People get fired for speaking up. Fear resulting in a yes man culture. Emphasis on man culture.

Pros

Chinese made swag. Fear culture. Lies and tons of snacks!!!

Cons

All the negative reviews are true. The positive ones are fake posts from the brass. The owner and his right hand man seem like criminals and BEHAVE LIKE THEM!!! Ever wanted to work for King Joffrey?Here’s your chance! Don’t work here. If you currently do, plan your escape. Take care of yourself and stop supporting this disgusting front of a company. Hey Dan and Ryan, you suck!

Pros

- Being friends with the right persons will be vital to protect your job. If you have the consistency of Jell-O and you’re a suck-up, you’ll do great. - The most talented engineers leave the company after a year or two. They know better. - You’ll be promoted to middle management in no time if what you say and what you do does not match. Congratulations, but you’re still a bad manager. - I hope you like people auto-congratulating themselves. You’ll get a lot of that. At least every other week.

Cons

- Upper management repeatedly changes direction and wastes huge amounts of money on projects that get ditched shortly after their start. Despite the fact that the company is not profitable, management does not seem to have connected the dots. They choose instead to let people go overnight shortly after hiring en masse and change the health plan for an inferior one without telling anybody. - Middle management has unconditional power on the teams they manage. Forget about 360-degree employee reviews. Your manager is the only one who decides your fate. - This company solves problems with a fresh coat of paint and PR. Don’t be fooled.
