Pros

Leadership seem to want employees to be happy and not overwork themselves. No expectations to give more than 40 hours a week. Pretty good benefits

Cons

US engineering is the “trophy wife”. All real engineering and code ownership is with the Chinese engineering team, with new hires basically only happening there. There is a feeling within US engineering the only reason we exist is political, to reassure West based customers there are no funny business. “See, we have engineers in the US!”

Pros

Nothing about this company is worth noting.

Cons

One of the worst companies I have worked at. Management and leadership are disorganized and unsupportive. Employees get treated like dogs and are talked down to. No work life balance because everything is an escalation or because some “head” requested something. For a company so well regarded, they sure know to how be cheap and take away benefits. Parental leave is basically a slap you in the face. Comp is high but expect to have that dangled in your face or else you get let go. On site lunch and breakfast is nice but how much can you sugar coat the terrible work conditions with little snacks? Everything is such a mess. I’ve been here for almost 7 months and have not met a single person that enjoys their job. DO NOT JOIN ZOOM!
