Management transition failed to bring change

Pros

Benefits are on par for the market in Boulder (i.e. good benefits)

Cons

Totally incompetent leadership at every level has created a disastrous situation for the project. Failing all the time is awful for morale. Most of the good people are leaving, so the situation keeps getting worse. There is no accountability for performance, in fact leaders who have failed to deliver seem to keep getting promoted. The management transition was a cause for hope, but has failed to bring any changes. ZERO managers were fired, so it's more of a management addition.

Pros

The worker bees and most of the scientists were great. Anyone above 'supervisor' level was suspect. Manager and above should all be walked out.

Cons

Lousy H.R. department Lousy upper management including CFO & CEO Systemic failures in accounting, engineering, manufacturing & logistics/supply chain Upper management 'ego's & tirades.

Pros

The work is stimulating, the people are awesome, and the mission is easy to be enthusiastic about. If you come to NEON with initiative and optimism you will have the opportunity for challenging, fulfilling work.

Cons

There are many negative reviews on this site, and I understand where some are coming from, but now is a time for optimism at NEON with the introduction of new project management.
