Once a great place to work.

Pros

The people and culture were great.

Cons

When the company was acquired and Sr Leadership was forced out and things changed. It all became about the bottom line at all cost. I agree that profitability is important but at the cost of your employees, customers and partners. Many long term valuable employees were discarded like a used paper towel. We built something great and to watch it torn apart was painful.

Pros

Great people, good perks. I met some really terrific co-workers there, people you'd be proud to work with/for. I have a great network of people who used to work there.

Cons

The best people -- in management and among your peers -- are forced out, some literally fired for speaking their minds, telling the truth, having experience. The result: teams run by mediocre, b-team players who would never in a million years hold the jobs they have at a decently run company. They ignore or insult people who have ideas or know how to get things done. Very sad.

Pros

Prior to the acquisition by Endurance, the company was actually a decent place to work. Support management was understanding of personal needs, to the degree that the could be. There was a strong team mentality. At work perks, (beer cart Fridays, food every now and then, random gifts), were nice moral boosters.

Cons

Pay was low for the type of work being done. I understand this was because we had a huge support team and couldn't pay everyone market rate. Product was buggy. 20-30% of inbound calls resulted in non-solutions and only temporary workarounds for bugs that had been around 6+ months. Post acquisition, Endurance fired 150+ people without looking at specifics of their jobs. Programmers revolted because the QA who tested the core products was let go just because of his title. (He was later hired back.)
