Business Outlook

Pros

The personality of the CEO permeates throughout the company. This means that it does feel like family, objectives are focused, and employees that are naturally driven will fit in (and do) well. All in all though it is a good place to work as an engineer. Leadership has their head in the right place and the work/life balance for engineers is hard to beat.

Cons

Like any group of people there are individuals that do not seem to be 100% on board with the culture. There are also decisions that are made that can be hard to understand from the bottom. That all comes with working within a corporate structure.

Pros

Company is focused on productivity but still allows for family life and offers great flexibility. Work from home for a company that cares about you.

Cons

To be a top performer, you'll have to spend at least some time during the nights and/or weekends to finish projects - somewhere between 15 minutes - 2hours.
