Fabulous place to work

Pros

I go to work happy every day and come home that way. My management is terrific, the pay is great, and the work is stimulating. What else could one ask for? Oh, one more thing--it's a family-controlled company so we never have to worry about being sold off.

Cons

Decision-making isn't always straightforward; often it's not clear who is responsible or accountable for specific decisions.

Pros

-the company is accepting and highly tolerant of employees of all ages and backgrounds -senior management is approachable. It is common to see executives of this multibillion dollar company in the same cafeteria as all employees -knowing that the skills you bring to the company are making a difference in the world through ground breaking research in all of our company's products

Cons

-Can't think of any cons. The workload can be demanding but forming a good relationship with your manager will make the workload much more manageable.

A company that grew too fast

Pros

Exciting company - constantly changing / growing / evolving. Lots of people have been here for years so it must be good. Nice campus in Hercules

Cons

Looks like a company that grew too fast and does not have the processes to sustain the growth. Something feels like it is still managed like a cornershop, which can be frustrating.
