Pros

Good working environment in many departments. Starting the 'cleaning house' process that will enable them to reach the highest level of sales. Not afraid to terminate out moded employees....dead wood...when market conditions demand it. Pay is just OK in many departments...not great...not below market....just OK. They definitely will promote from within rather than bring an outsider into management. Demand high standards of EVERYONE and not just a select few.

Cons

Very expensive health benefits. Below average profit sharing. Very, very expensive standard of living in San Jose or San Fransico. PLEASE TAKE NOTE: if CEI is relocating you from another area, you will need TWICE THE PAY THAT YOU RECEIVED/CURRENTLY RECEIVE OUSIDE THE BAY AREA!

Pros

Cupertino has created a strong culture of employee success, From its outstanding employee leaders to the programs and professional growth opportunities it offers, CEI continually shows how much it values its people. The company's commitment to developing and supporting fosters an environment where employees can thrive both personally and professionally.

Cons

Not many cons here at CEI. But if I had to add one, it'd be more to do with the hiring process. At times we need personnel to be onsite sooner but the process and approvals tend to take a lot longer than normal places.
