Things started to look but now back to gloomy

Pros

Good pay, employment activities such as ice cream. Great technology, at least on paper.

Cons

Crazy management. They do not understand that the product is incomplete and has not proven itself to run at full capacity. Symbotic has not setup a repeatable system yet so all of our customers running different systems and mostly unhappy. None of the customers signed off on delivering system and that is a big problem.

Business Outlook

Pros

I was hired right out of college and the other employees helped a lot in terms of training and getting up to speed. Because the company is still young and growing rapidly, there was not proper training material yet established. Every one was happy to lend a hand

Cons

Space. Like some other reviews, the current working environment is a bit crowded. But this isn't a bad thing, as plans to relocate are being finalized.
