Bottom line more important than employees

Pros

Hardworking teams, most people are helpful. Has potential to be a real powerhouse in the software industry, but will fail due to cons listed below.

Cons

Layoffs every other week (or so it seems) with no plans in place; those that are left are crazily overworked--trying to pick up the pieces. Murdoch very obviously cares only about another pay day. Horribly crass in communications--resulting in a company where no one feels valued. Money, money, money--that's what's important--your employees? Who cares? If anyone has any SPOT of talent, they've either left already, or are looking for an out.

-Solid Team on East coast and West Coast -New product DS10 has a chance to sell more -Work From home daily if desired

Cons

-Current status of the product is a nightmare -The UK based team gets all the praise and does the least amount of work -There are so many policies its near impossible to actually solve any issues -Customer issues are insanely challenging due to the processes and tedious places where the product breaks -Product is very outdated and outlook is bleak

Pros

The only pro is that they are flexible. You can make your own hours and work from home. But this also means you work way over 40 hours a week.

Cons

Pay is abhorrent and way below industry standards. Think you can get a raise by asking for one? Think again! Management hierarchy is cliquey and mostly incompetent. No one respects anyone else and will throw you under the bus quicker than fast to save themselves. Constant layoffs, everyone is scared for their job. Recently went through a merger with part of HPE so restructuring is rampant and being run by people who literally do not care about any of the employees.
