Pros

a lot of the people who work here are good people and talented employees

Cons

the middle management is a spin cycle of constantly rotating talentless individuals and the annual layoffs have really left this place struggling to function. jobs get pushed abroad with no consideration to time zone differences and a whole slew of people who don't know how to say they're already overstretched get assigned work from people who were let go and whole swaths of the business have just become inoperable. it takes months to get anything done and by the time you've made any inroads into solving a problem you have a new boss who knows they'll be reshuffled and don't bother trying to fix anything. everyone at the normal worker level is criminally underpaid for 2026.

Pros

The work is interesting. Some decent travel is available if desired. If you work hard and set yourself apart from others you can earn a promotion.

Cons

It’s all about who you know. All responsibilities fall on Engineering. Engineering does much more than “engineer” and spend too much time on stuff that admin staff “should be able” to do. When something needs to change the usual solution is to have Engineers be responsible for it because many non-engineers can’t handle mediocre tasks.
