Pros

CEO is very impressive . VP s and directors are good. Can’t say same for some of the engineering managers/ senior managers. Company compensates well. It is is expected to have good business.

Cons

Look some where else if you are minority because managers/ senior managers in Oregon will not treat you well. Many have left due to mistreatments. Top management talks about diversity but no concrete actions on the ground which is quite frustrating.

Pros

- Some of the benefits including life style reimbursements - Fast paced depending on the team you are (If fast paced is considered a pro for you obviously!!)

Cons

- Horrible cross functional team collaborations - Lack of proper project/product management - Chaotic and lack of processes all over the place - Undervaluing talents - Abusing young talents and new college grads to the highest level - Last but not least, terrible HR and Payroll

Pros

Pay is high. Benefits meet industry standard. Networking up can be possible if you're a people person. 10% annual bonus (usually).

Cons

12 hour shifts 120 hours of time off per year. This includes sick time, vacation time, etc. So 10 days total. Carrot on a stick philosophy. (always promising more pay, more time off, etc, but not delivering on it). Like the title says, your management team will make or break this job for you. Urgently requested (required) overtime. If you say no, it affects your annual bonus.
