Pros

Quarterly Bonuses are great. The owner/CEO is a great guy. Really is trying to run a top notch program.

Cons

This company is not good, if you are a minority. There is no elevation at the same pace there is for Caucasian counterparts. Most importantly, there was just blatant disrespect for the minority employees in the Arlington office, from the SECURITY leadership. Like I told the owner when I abruptly resigned because of the mistreatment, “you are a great guy, and this is a great place to work, IF YOU ARE NOT A MINORITY!” Since leaving, I have had one employee call the security guard force and tell them essentially I am a threat, and proceed without caution. I have had my social media stalked by my former supervisor. Amongst other things. Good company, but again, minority candidates, please proceed with caution.

Pros

- Great Compensation - Highly knowledgeable and engaged coworkers - Very engaging and interesting work: just not enough time in a day to get it all done. - Great office amenities

Cons

- Really poor work life balance; this job is likely your coworker's entire life - Unreasonable expectations; the company is very much still in its infancy and looking to expand, though they haven't quite figured out what it looks like to deploy physical systems responsibly to external customers - Don't expect any leniency when it comes to learning the team or the field: stay engaged, and stay vocal of what you're doing and when. - Not the kind of team where employees can take a task and work separately before returning with results - they're looking for constant engagement and daily collaboration even if it isn't necessary.
