Pros

Company is publicly traded and is < 100 employees offering a unique opportunity to be hands on with growing the company in an agile environment. Company has fascinating technology and very smart people working in all departments; many of which who have built careers in other well-known, Fortune 500 companies. Management is rather hands-off and is seeking "owners" who can drive their own direction in their teams which benefits Airgain as a company. Work schedule is rather flexible or fully remote depending on your position. The expectation is for you to get your work done and to take the initiative. There are snacks in the office, and they just started catering lunches 4x/month.

Cons

There is a lack of overall structure with process and rigor around current processes. The good news is there is the opportunity to improve, and management is open to the ideas. Company is going through growing pains. Culture is in the process of developing, but I see the company making an effort to create a great place to work.

Plymouth office is great to work for

Pros

The Plymouth office came from the acquisition of NimbeLink, so there’s a different culture here than in San Diego and Scottsdale. My colleagues at the Plymouth office are all wonderful, which makes it enjoyable to come to the office [with the option to work remotely]. And then the team members I work with remotely are also fun to talk to and work on department projects together. (Plus being a part of the hiring process for my colleagues helped to find people who were easy to work with.) Another pro is that they gave me the proper equipment to work from home and when I need to travel. Not everyone is given the proper computer equipment, but it’s based on department, I think. They thankfully equipped the computers with the right software to make work easier—Word, PowerPoint, etc and any Adobe software that may be needed for the position. At the Plymouth office, they stock the kitchen with coffee, snacks, and water to make it comfortable to work. HR has been host bi-weekly lunch and learns and providing a free lunch. And specific activities to our office include a holiday pot luck and also a yearly office party, which most recently has meant a cruise on Lake Minnetonka. Lastly the health benefits, while they aren't terrible, they're mediocre. But there is an option for an HSA which is a plus as they did not have that option before acquiring NimbeLink. Overall, I’ve stayed here because I enjoy the colleagues I talk to the most, the office is close enough to my home when I commute, and it pays just enough to keep me. NOTES: Senior Management rating and other ratings seen below are based on Plymouth experience.

Cons

The cons of working at Airgain is that the process of getting a raise can take up to a year even after working here for so long. There's no formal maternity leave process so for women. Women have to go through insurance for a small check of 50% of your pay that you would make over the course of 6 short weeks. The environments does not support growing families. PTO and paid holidays could be more generous and competitive with other companies. HR can be unreliable and is hard to get ahold of on occasion. But this is mostly because of lack of resources.

I completely agree with your statements about the pros and cons of being with Airgain. We are adhering to our values of creating a flexible work environment, and are looking at opportunities to better recognize our employees. For the areas that we can further improve, we have identified many of the deficiencies you speak of and are taking multiple steps to address and continue to improve the experience of working at Airgain. We have moved to an unlimited vacation policy for FTE, and are working on opportunities to make the company more welcoming to families. IT is improving its resources by bringing more functions in-house and making the investment to better serve Airgain's employees. Thank you for your review of Airgain.
