Pros

The thing I liked best about working at Bytemobile was the technology. It was very good experience for learning about the mobile space. There are many issues dealing in the mobile space ( ads, compression,media types) that you would not think of unless you were exposed to it. The work was challenging.

Cons

January 2012, they just laid off half the company due to money problems, I guess ATT success with LTE is something they didn't count on. Avoid this company as a place to work , work week is now 60 hours, weekend work is now common. The information posted by other reviewers is still true ,company run by inner circle. Promotions, raises, who gets laid off are all determined by if the inner circle likes you or not. AVOID this company. The company is run by a bunch of college kids that have never had a real job, this is why they make so many mistakes. This company constantly struggles with money issues.

Pros

Solid business and interesting tech.

Cons

Bytemoble has a negative atmosphere. Promotions are given for personal reasons (friendship, close relations, etc.) rather than merit. Some managers are extremely incompetent. Some upper level managers are dishonest.

Pros

There are not many things to say. Here are some I can think of - okay kind of work - work life balance - Not to aggressive schedules - overall nice people to work with

Cons

This place has negative energy. The positions are CEO and CTO are a joke. Everything is run by VP of Engineering. People in the management kiss his behind. His brother started as a fresher and went on to become an Architect. Information is passed to other employees on a need to know basis. Just using marketing Jumbo to sell one product. If you want to work just for a basic salary and not expecting anything more, this is one place. There is no 401k match. There is no bonus. There is no incentive stock options. Not that this stock is gonna be worth something. For some reason, they behave as if this is next google.
