Pros
Snacks, coffee, tea, milk Meal delivery service (individual lunches) Air conditioning Wifi Some great, dedicated engineers and technicians. Unlimited PTO Hybrid WFH (with manager's approval) Arguably a very interesting field to work in.
Cons
Poor rewards / incentive program: “Performance based” quarterly bonus with no rubric or pre-determined goals to meet. Jump Started after withdrawal of 401k employer matching. Top-down directives: Quickly disseminated directives from upper management (typically CEO) with little to no forewarning or discussion with others (including other managers). Culture: Some bad office behavior is allowed to persist, even after being brought to HR’s attention. Project management: Upper management’s detestation of project managers results in few project managers and the poor execution of some projects. Interlopers: Moderate to severe cronyism. Has even led to some mistakes from lack of knowledge transfer. Promotions: No promotion policy aside from “moving the needle”
