Beware of Seagate

Pros

Salaries are good. Hands off mgt style, until something goes wrong. Individuals can make a difference. A lot of good people with good skills work for Dot Hill.

Cons

Not the same since Seagate takeover. Many more rules and very rigid. Admin. Group doesn't get any respect. Seen as overhead and treated as dispensable. Older work force that creates dull atmosphere

Management is running DH into the ground

Pros

They pay isn't bad, although don't count on raises once you get in and they had a 5% salary cut in the summer of 2010. They also don't push the engineering teams as much as other departments - or to be more accurate, they don't get flogged as much when they cannot deliver 125% year after year.

Cons

Being an engineering driven company (Dana's words) can be acceptable as long as they understand they have to deliver, every other function is a support group. DH's problem is when engineering slips schedules, fails to meet cost targets, and doesn't deliver acceptable reliability and function the rest of the teams take the blame. The engineering team is good, but the expectations across the board are unrealistic. However, to state this (and worse yet, demonstrate it before mgmt accepts the slip) is paycheck suicide.
