Pros

Pay was decent but not exceptional. You have to put up with a lot of crap to get stock options, which they will use as your carrot on a stick.

Cons

5 days in office Commute to Bee Cave office sucked CEO has no leadership skills Most VPs were yes men Too much politics to actually get work done properly No work life balance - they wanted you to work 60-70 hrs, per the CEO, it's his life so it should be yours as his employee....

Pros

You get to work with the smartest and best people in industry, on the most cutting-edge technology, with the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to build something revolutionary in our generation. The company is known in the industry as the “Lamborghini of antennas and communication systems” The startup culture is never going to fit just anyone and everyone. It is a company that grows over 100% yoy for many consecutive years, and of course the team is gonna feel the pain because that’s how fast things are growing in all directions. As a result, the teams are expected to figure out, run and deliver in the same fashion without all the luxury of time to build infrastructures around it. No startup survives in the competition and this market without churning through similar pains.

Cons

Growing pains are real but the changes are happening in the right directions - equity plan, bonus, pays, benefits are being adjusted as the company generates more revenue. People who stayed choose to solve these hard problems because they believe in the mission and the DNA of this place. The hours and workloads could be long, but it’s not terrible - I have worked at places with way worse work life balances.

Pros

Free lunches on Thursdays and snacks

Cons

Toxic leadership, top down. Complete and utter chaos, coupled with delusion. It’s taxiing to be around so many people that are unhappy.
