Pros

There are some good people here. Cool technology the company is working on. Pay is good.

Cons

Leadership is a bunch of rich guys who like to talk about how rich they are during company meetings. IT leadership is very combative and is not a team culture. Very unprofessional. Pay is not worth it to work here and be laid off right before holidays. Layoff call was abrupt, force ended call and access was revoked. Even laid off people who picked up their life and moved across country. Wouldn't recommend this place to my worst enemy.

Pros

There was great camaraderie amongst the main workers.

Cons

This company has highly dysfunctional leadership that does not know how to lead people or manage complex projects. There is very little planning and most people spend time putting fires out or on non-value add activities. It is not likely this company will be successful.
