Pros

The company has a great product, the engineers do a great job and the majority of the employees do their job with the best of intentions. The product is key and makes or breaks this type of company. Overall the product is above average and has longevity.

Cons

Management is more focused on profits than employees, which is typical or larger companies. After the mergers and consolidations, Zebra's focus has become solely on profits and cost cutting. Their last step was sending most of the production overseas and then configuring the final product here. Overall the quality suffered but as long as the profits were there, everything else was secondary.

Pros

Paid Time Off is generous if allowed to use

Cons

Management is a disaster. Far too many Senior Managers that do not contribute but reduce total comp or headcount available for the real work. Talented, high-performing individuals leave in droves. Often when the company goes through the lay-off period, They terminate all the high earners in favor of hiring junior staff, who then leave very shortly. Very high attrition rate. HR is zero help, as should be expected. Failing tech with no valid improvements. Shrinking stock and market capitalization.
