Exciting industry, unstable organization

Pros

Exciting industry to work in with opportunities for unique experiences that are hard to find elsewhere. Decent pay and a good vacation policy.

Cons

Top heavy, highly political organization that is constantly being shuffled around. Hazy vision as it relates to achieving corporate goals. Internal processes are unnecessarily convoluted and at times arbitrary. High employee turnover with regular rounds of layoffs that feel as though they have been given little thought.

Bullies rise to the top

Pros

Most people are really nice, work hard, and are very smart. Compensation and benefits are good. HR is working to improve the culture at the company.

Cons

The company is run by bullies, who frequently scapegoat underlings with no valid reason so that they can maintain their position and not look bad. Lots of yelling in meetings, very little listening. Many egos just trying to gain power holds. HR runs fantastic programs to improve the culture that are largely ignored by those in positions of power. Very top-heavy organization with little structure to advance within. There have been three re-orgs in the last year and a half, no time is given for a new org structure to find its footing before it is changed again in either a desperate attempt to improve performance or in a power struggle. No career paths are mapped out, little mentoring is given.

Pros

Many great audio software engineers, with the passion, drive and expertise to build world-class algorithms.

Cons

The upper management is filled by cronies that have no understanding of the technology or technology potential. For this reason, great engineers with great ideas get stuck trying to defend their research and development, all while the rest of the industry moves forward and embraces potential.
