Pros

If you need a job it's a job

Cons

Management appears to have zero experience in running a large business unit. They lack vision and initiative to take the business to the next level. If you not part of the in crowd you will flounder and be micro-managed to the nth degree. If you are in you can be as inexperienced as a box of rocks and still get praise and promotions. The technology is out-dated and old, although they are trying to implement the next generation products for their main product set, but this has gone horribly wrong and will take years to fix. They are going to dump next gen technology on an aging workforce with zero training and expect them to keep up, this is a recipe for disaster. Stay away unless you like backstabbing, no raises, layoffs, cutbacks, crappy technology, no vision, and best of all like to have your ideas ignored and stay in the same position with no growth for years on end! I would also say that the company is a takeover target

Pros

The interview process was smooth, well-organized, and professionally conducted. I appreciated the timely updates after each stage. Overall, it was a positive and seamless experience.

Cons

The overall timeline of the interview process was slightly extended—possibly due to delays in client confirmations or internal approvals. If feasible, streamlining this aspect could enhance the candidate experience further.

Pros

People below the senior manager level are great to work with and are dedicated to customers.

Cons

Senior managers and above are political “yes men” to the CEO who frequently screams at people publicly and on Teams meetings and makes cutting, derisive comments regarding the work people do — even those that put in many hours on the company’s behalf. He frequently complains that he is the only one who is smart enough and dedicated enough to identify and solve problems. His vision is limited to an intense engineering focus, with the answer to every challenge being to “hire more engineers.” This has begun to hold the company back and is reflected in the dropping stock price.
