Pros

There are some very good and well-meaning co-workers "stuck" at the deteriorated office facility in East Fishkill due to the "perceived" lack of high tech jobs in upstate NY area.

Cons

The start-up company morale has been very low with a discouraging outlook for a very long time. There are pockets of "disrespectful managers" whose condescending, harassing, and discriminatory behaviors are promoted by their management. There is a network of "ole buddies" protecting their "yes-man circle" from all the finger-pointing as the ship sinks. There is overwhelmingly fierce competition from top competitors who are far ahead with leading technologies.

Pros

Very supportive team and management to work with from the beginning. Many training classes need to be taken in moving forward to align with the company policies and technical procedures. Good benefits and competitive salary. Have a very positive plan for long term career and educational support tuition. The interview and hiring process are long but informative and responded promptly.

Cons

There are many training classes to take so it may put more stress on a new hire if you do not have a good plan.

Pros

Everyone is willing to help and the training is actually good training

Cons

If I didn’t know someone that worked since I was going to overnights I didn’t really meet anyone on my team except my manager once. Also I wouldn’t know who to reach out like manger wise if I didn’t know someone who already worked here
