Pros

Open PTO. Generous time and holidays off. 401k matching and HSA contribution. A mission to save lives, not turn a profit on widgets made offshore. More-than-fair pay, annual bonus, annual stock options, and a special stock program (risk more, earn (or lose) more). Work-at-home 100%. Paid travel to company gigs, neat SWAG, product employee discounts. Quality co-workers working on dozens of different future-proof products. Lots of opportunities for promotion or lateral job change.

Cons

None. Really: none. Can you find something to complain about? Sure. You can do that anywhere. Some people here even complain that unlimited PTO makes them feel guilty and could they please change it to the standard earn-it model, can you believe that? Will you be driven to meet deadlines and play nice? Yes. Will you need to work with people different than you? Yes. Will they force you to take a TASER shot? NO. If you can't enjoy working here, you can't enjoy working anywhere :-).

Pros

The company has a great mission to protect life. The value of win right is something I think is often lacking in other companies and I have seen how it works well here with external wins.

Cons

As a salary employee I have worked more weekends and holidays than days I have taken off in the time I have been here with hardly a thanks. It’s an expectation that my salary does not cover. I tend to feel like a cog in a wheel rather than a valued individual.
