Lacking focus

Pros

Very cool technology to work with, things you will not see anywhere else all in one building. A few good people around that really know what they are doing and trying to make everything work well.

Cons

VERY inexperienced staff promoted to higher positions without the training or knowledge to do the job properly. Crazy timelines that are demanded by management but not supported by management. Very poor benefits package overall, along with no bonus structure to speak of.

Pros

Interesting projects. Not a bad place for a first job. Coworkers seem cordial enough.

Cons

Health benefits are below par. The salary seems to be below what one would expect in the field.
