unprofessional and untrustworthy company to work for.

Anonymous employee

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

They provide competitive salary and benefits. provide learning on your own experience. if you like happy hour and downtown, they have it.

Cons

unprofessional with handling work situations. lack of transparency in leadership. lack of team spirit and each one is for his/her own when issues arise. All play the blame game, everyone want credit for work you've done and blame you for their shortcomings. dishonesty spreads and present cross the board within the company.

Should be so much more

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great people. Most have enough experience to be great sources of information Challenging work that results in real-world products Great perks (ie ACL and SXSW tickets. Nice annual company picnic) Re-imbursement for public transportation Decent benefits Downtown Austin location

Cons

Serious schedule pressures result in an over-worked staff. No time for vacation. Not paid for PTO that is accrued over maximum. Some managers are completely unprofessional and childish. Upper management plays favorites. If you weren't around during the lean-times, you're not worthy of promotion. We can't all be drinking buddies. Review process is unfair. If you are going to be so selective about hiring the best engineers, asserting 30% "needs improvement" is just plain silly and non-motivational. Minuscule raises

Is it too much to ask for a simple Thank-you?

Business Outlook

Pros

The pay is great. The perks are nice for single people who want to live in the downtown area. Good rewards from upper management and lots of fringe benefits. Easy access downtown to a lot of food joints. Happy hour on Fridays.

Cons

For family guys who don't drink, the perks aren't quite there. Managers need to be trained better. It was literally years between when a manager has said "Good Job", or "Thank-you" even after putting in 16 hour days for a few weeks to meet a deadline. There is a lack of positive feedback. Support from management just isn't there.
