Pros

Improving the technologies used here

Cons

Seniors engineers are rude, not at all helpful. Work environment is hectic, it is mandatory to take 30 min lunch break but it doesn't count in your overall 8 hour day shift, so you have to work more than 8 hrs a day. You have to clock out for lunch. No work from home. Very less pay. (PS: I work in an office location other than California)

Pros

Company offered full health benefits

Cons

Very low compensation compared to industry competitors. If you want to participate in health benefits it will cost you more than 25% of your gross check. Raises are a piddly 0%-3%. Most don't even get 3% raises which is the normal cost of living raise from other companies. Shame.

Behind the Curtain: What They Don’t Tell you

Pros

Great place to test your emotional endurance. Additionally, they say it’s like a family here—and they’re right. You’ll experience all the dysfunction, favoritism, and passive-aggressive communication of a real one. If you’ve ever wanted to feel like the black sheep at Thanksgiving, this is the place. You’ll connect deeply… with the realization that loyalty is a one-way street.

Cons

Compensation is insultingly low—30–50% below market rates. Do your research before signing anything. Management is a revolving door of dysfunction, with no clear direction and zero accountability. The CEO publicly champions a “fitness culture” yet visibly struggles to walk across the room—an apt metaphor for the company’s hypocrisy. Layoffs are frequent and poorly handled, leaving employees blindsided and disposable. They preach “family” nonstop, but it’s a hollow slogan. The only ones thriving are senior leadership, who rake in massive bonuses while the rest of us scramble for scraps. If you’re hoping for growth, stability, or genuine connection, look elsewhere.
