Pros

The company has set the course, and we all are sailing together. My boss is the best I have worked with till date. Working hours are flexible, work from home is an option, lot of opportunities to take responsibilities, to learn technology etc. Get the right manager, everything will fall in place automatically.

Cons

*The rewards were not up to expectations, that is understandable because of the situations after spin-off. * Management keeps changing the plans/road maps. Hope that we will have solid plans after the initial phases.

Pros

Summer work from home Fridays, environment is pretty casual, benefits are good. New CEO has the right vision and attitude and is hiring the right management to change the culture Lots of work sponsored activities and free food

Cons

Being short-staffed is status quo and many people are burnt out. CEO may have the right attitude and vision but the leftover bad practices and attitudes of management pre-split from NETGEAR make it hard to tell if culture will ever change here. Management likes to draw things out into long projects, or just talk about changes, but not actually implement them. People who think outside the box are not treated well here, but if you say yes all the time, you'll fit in great. Upper management doesn't understand what is going on down below them and they are being shown smoke and mirrors. Things can't be improved if no one admits the problems exist. You find out if you did something wrong when it comes time for your bonus/annual review, but no one mentions it before then. You can't change something you don't know about. Mentorship doesn't exist here, and you might have an in-depth conversation with your supervisor every couple of months in some cases. There are pros and cons to that!

Thank you for taking the time to share your perspective. Your feedback helps us create programs that employees value and to continually improve. It’s always great to hear positive feedback about our flexible and casual work environment. We agree that coaching and mentor programs would be a beneficial addition to our programs, with that we will be rolling out a mentor program later in the year, please stay tuned for more information. We also want to encourage you to speak to any member of the HR team with your concerns and examples so that we can better understand. In addition, we encourage you to speak to the executive for your department with more specific examples. We are always looking for ways to improve and our executive team is certainly open to feedback.
