Pros

Cant thinking positive about this God forsaken company except for if you wanna sorta get paid and barely do anything this is the place to be. Well I guess if you're a terrible engineer, you'd fit in here!

Cons

Where aspiring engineering careers go to die. 1. Terrible Pay. 2. Terrible Micromanaging Bosses. 3. Lack of Vision from Leadership. 4. Too Many Engineers that Can't Launch a Product Due to Their Incompetencies 5. Engineers Have Too High of an Ego for What Their Skills Are and What They've Managed to Launch
