Pros

Limited work from home allowed (for family emergencies or other issues that may come up). Located in downtown next to food carts. There are some good individual employees that are very helpful, friendly, and fun. These are throw back employees from a better time - I'd question how many employees are long term (more than 4 years ) before working here. Located on the MAX and bus line.

Cons

Management and leadership. Manager has limited management experience is inconsistent in his expectations and style. He is constantly is meetings that are not related to QA and doesn't know what anyone is working on, yet openly questions team members. Asking for assistance on a large project will net you no help, but just told to do what you need to do to get the project out the door. . Work environment with fellow employees is good, but is uncomfortable and at times hostile with the manager. He will call employees out in front of the team if they are not doing things the way he wants. He will say inappropriate things and then tell you privately it was a joke and that everyone else understood that. Confusing expectations. Manager is trying to move to quicker deployment process, but doesn't seem to understand work loads of employees, scale of projects, or day to day work needed to be done by the team. Your reviews are based not on the work you do as a QA Engineer, but what side projects have you done to move the QA team forward. There is no time for these said side projects, so reviews generally are poor. Annual raises - 3% is considered exceptional here. Be sure to fight for a high starting salary, or you will never make anything more. No continued education. Training is up to you, at your cost. They do offer "New Horizons" and other training, but they are low quality and do not actual relate to the work you are doing here. Benefits are TERRIBLE. For a company that employs more than 3,500 people nationwide, you shouldn't be forced to go on the exchange to find quality care. With a family, expect at least $650/month out of pocket to cover insurance costs. There is no room for advancement. Testing tools are not utilized correctly. Team came from taking test notes in Word Documents to now trying to use TFS. No one on the team understands TFS fully and it is not utilized correctly. This can be frustrating as test cases are difficult to locate and reuse. Employees MUST pay for parking. The parking fee is $13.25 a day. Building is located on Burnside, which attracts a lot of homeless and other unsavory individuals. This is not a safe place to have family around or be by oneself.
