Glad the culture gets good reviews. Regarding our project mix, we don't tend to go after the flashy. But we do desire to press toward more complex problems to solve. Complex engineering problems aren't always flashy, but they are satisfying. Help us grow in this direction. Thanks for the feedback. Dave Ruff - CEO

Love it! The cons fade into obscurity in the background. Overshadowed by the pros. We definitely aren't perfect, but we do remain laser focused on the culture. Super important to have our jobs add to our lives and not subtract. Let's keep this going. Dave Ruff - CEO
