      Worst company to work with

      Customer network engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Very slow work environment, if you prefer less hectic style of working

      Cons

      They invade your privacy by hacking into you phone and laptop cameras. Personally, I will avoid this company at all costs.

      Look elsewhere

      Software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      My immediate team is great.

      Cons

      Things have seriously gone downhill. Benefits slashed, very low pay and wage increases less than half the inflation rate. Completely tone def badge-in badge-out and time tracking policy. Arrive after 9am because of whatever? Have fun explaining it to your manager. Every time. Didnt realize i was flippin burgers at wendys after all this time. Notorious at H1B trapping, if you are in that situation, dont let them ruin your life. Even if you are seriously pressed for a job, please look elsewhere. There is nothing for you here. That espcially goes out to college grads. This is not the place you want to be.
