      Don't believe the hype!

      Pros

      Pay is decent. Excellent 401k.

      Cons

      Management is very toxic. No one knows how to do their job and they refuse to give the employees a proper billing system to help make the job easier. Everything is haphazard, especially with management. They continuously pile more and more work on you with everything being the priority. Management never responds to your emails and micromanaging is rampant. The manager has a very condescending attitude and very toxic then wonders why team morale is low. If you ask questions about how to better do your job you are penalized. Management is not truthful, although they claim to be *transparent. You are given unrealistic goals with little or no guidance.

      Difficult place to work

      Pros

      Diverse work force with a lot of interesting backgrounds. Great products that help the world.

      Cons

      Highly toxic environment, where bad behavior is constantly rewarded. Not much empathy or understanding towards work life balance. Long hours with little to no payoff. HIGH TURNOVER - Lots of highly skilled resources are leaving for better jobs because of the bad management.

      Pros

      You can camp out there for a long time without getting noticed.

      Cons

      They have so much red tape they can't act in an agile manner. They hire people into positions that are inappropriate for their experience. They promote their "brand" on everything to make themselves look good but they have no abililty to produce anything innovative or that the market would actually want to buy. They survive only on old technology that is difficult to replace due to high barrier to entry.
