Pros

Pay was decent, opportunity for commission was a plus, that's about the only good things I have to say about the job

Cons

Managers were dumber than a box of rocks. They say you're allowed a 20 minute paid break, but if you are working out in IR (Instant Return) you're lucky to get a 5 minute break, and if you evengo to the restroom the managers start throwing a huge fit and act like it's the end of the world. Also there was too much drama, every employee talked badly of each other and also frequently dissed the managers, which I can see why. The head of management was a complete baboon. If you went to him about ANY problem he just shrugged it off and told you to tell a manager. My BIGGEST complaint of all though is the fact that many employees would disappear for about 1-3 hours and managers would say nothing. Yet I'm gone for 5 mins at the restroom and they flip out, it's just crazy. I've never worked at a place like this before.

Pros

It is possible to make a difference if you are determined enough. Many engineers work hard and most try.

Cons

The company has a ton of tech debt that it recognized, but is not being addressed. Management controls the time, scope and so quality is falling. The people they have hired lack fundamentals understanding of software development practices. The company often will make decisions to save small amounts of money with their facilities and tools they give to employees without understanding the opportunity cost that was lost. Overtime is required. You can't work here if you want to have a family or keep your family from hating you. Title inflation is real. Many people are actually performing one level down from their stated title and those that are not are only not failing due to putting in crazy hours. Middle management wont stickup for their people to ensure they are not burning out. They see it happening multiple times in front of them and they do nothing.
