Pros

THE EMPLOYEES are great people, 401K and Pension, work/life balance, 9/80 work weeks, growing company, products, access to training

Cons

Bad Management: Good old boys club! All ex-military and very demanding and controlling. Doesn't value you and the work you do; no respect; no process improvements; sexism, sexual harassment; work overload/burnout; favoritism; no advancement/passing qualified candidates up; notorious bad reviews, with no warning, several codes of conduct broken, etc. Bad HR: Doesn't back the employees expressing major concerns; allows for bad management to belittle women in the workplace; transfers managers with major red flags (i.e sexual harassment investigations, time card changes, ) and doesn't fire them; won't file complaints, allows for hostile work environments

Pros

Good working environment Exciting projects Great coworkers (for the most part, like any place)

Cons

Like any maturing company, it has become more and more top-heavy, placing more and more emphasis on project management and milestones, sometimes over bread-and-butter engineering. I could have half the PMs I have now and do a better job
