      A busy, varied work experience that ended without ceremony.

      Pros

      -Benefits were competitive. -Single-customer priority made travel mostly a non-issue. -Mandatory overtime made an impressive W-2. -Friendly but transparent staff. -Experience laying people off led to generous severance package.

      Cons

      -Mandatory overtime. -Distinct lack of feedback at team leader and management levels. -Force reduction mandated more work for fewer people. -Minimal chance for upward mobility - usually translated to more work with a shift differential versus an actual promotion -Communication between field techs, tech support, management severely lacking. -Hard work thanked with more work, then force reductions.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The company still has big market share. The company still has high performing engineers. The company is still profiting ok.

      Cons

      The whole market is shrinking, and the company is under pressure. Bureaucracy has been building too much. People relationship is taking too much impact.

      Pros

      Somewhat reasonable short term opportunity.

      Cons

      No long term opportunity. If you are young, leave after two years. If you are older than 30 they don't want you. Salary low compared to most other Valley companies.
