Pros
The Plymouth office came from the acquisition of NimbeLink, so there’s a different culture here than in San Diego and Scottsdale. My colleagues at the Plymouth office are all wonderful, which makes it enjoyable to come to the office [with the option to work remotely]. And then the team members I work with remotely are also fun to talk to and work on department projects together. (Plus being a part of the hiring process for my colleagues helped to find people who were easy to work with.) Another pro is that they gave me the proper equipment to work from home and when I need to travel. Not everyone is given the proper computer equipment, but it’s based on department, I think. They thankfully equipped the computers with the right software to make work easier—Word, PowerPoint, etc and any Adobe software that may be needed for the position. At the Plymouth office, they stock the kitchen with coffee, snacks, and water to make it comfortable to work. HR has been host bi-weekly lunch and learns and providing a free lunch. And specific activities to our office include a holiday pot luck and also a yearly office party, which most recently has meant a cruise on Lake Minnetonka. Lastly the health benefits, while they aren't terrible, they're mediocre. But there is an option for an HSA which is a plus as they did not have that option before acquiring NimbeLink. Overall, I’ve stayed here because I enjoy the colleagues I talk to the most, the office is close enough to my home when I commute, and it pays just enough to keep me.

Cons
The cons of working at Airgain is that the process of getting a raise can take up to a year even after working here for so long. There's no formal maternity leave process so for women. Women have to go through insurance for a small check of 50% of your pay that you would make over the course of 6 short weeks. The environments does not support growing families. PTO and paid holidays could be more generous and competitive with other companies. HR can be unreliable and is hard to get ahold of on occasion. But this is mostly because of lack of resources.
