Pros

Startup Culture and numerous opportunities to grow.

Cons

CEO and leadership team fail to listen to employee feedback. Consistently disregarding the feedback of employees who talk with employees the most.

Thanks for your candid feedback. We have recently made some changes to our senior leadership, and it is my sincere hope that you feel we are moving in the right direction in terms of better listening to employee feedback. If there is anything else you feel like we could be doing better, please feel free to contact me directly.

Pros

* Full stack development in-house (hardware, firmware, mobile & cloud) * Consumer and enterprise products mean diverse & challenging requirements * Quickly growing; opportunity to be involved in "big picture" discussions & make meaningful contributions as an individual * Close company culture * Company is not afraid to make changes when needed and invest in business opportunities

Cons

* Fast-growing team + dynamic development goals can lead to increased pressure to succeed * Lean team sizes offer the opportunity to make large contributions, but also mean support can be thin at times. Liking to work on your own for full feature development is a must

Thanks for your feedback! We have aggressive goals to expand a number of engineering teams throughout the second half of 2019, so hopefully you'll find more support in the coming months.
