Pros

Best product on the market with reliable technology

Cons

Frequent changes, multiple layoffs and realignments over the last few years, and a decreased focus on employee satisfaction. I used to love my job here, but I struggle to support the decisions the company makes. Despite record growth over the last few years, salaries are stagnant and promotion opportunities are limited to those upper leadership likes (whether they are qualified or not).

Pros

Salary is decent but the work behind the salary is enormous

Cons

1. no flexibility - this is 5 days on site 2. sodas are in vendor machines and you need to pay 3. directors and managers are milking the company and they do not understand the flow of the team 4. numerous WARN notices over the last couple years. No culture or layalty to the company. 5. They cut several folks and hire one to replace all the missing folks workload
