Pros

No drug test, cool concepts, nice location

Cons

Micromanaging CEO who stifles creativity and does not treat employees well. They have been working during the Governor's stay at home order and are not essential business. Despicable to put profits ahead of their employees health.

This is simply not true. We are an essential business since we manufacture products for government agencies, national laboratories, the military, utilities, and other critical businesses. When the pandemic began, we even contacted the Governor's office directly to confirm our status. Even with our company being deemed essential, we still have a majority of our staff working remotely.

Pros

The people are amazing, and help each other out. The creative output is great, and those energies are almost always encouraged! The owner is always investing into the company, and there's a real drive for projects and sales. The projects are often fun, and involve a lot of different disciplines. Reasonable compensation and benefits packages for the area. Pretty much everyone at the company is a great person - upper management and owner included.

Cons

There was a real lack of hierarchy, with the few who had "manager" status frequently being overruled or having the carpet pulled out by upper management. I have seen some pretty shocked faces coming out of management meetings... Upper management also frequently got involved in project management and even project-level work, which very rarely led to smooth or true success. Micromanaging is a serious issue. Ideum seemed to have a high turnover rate, with some of these problems frequently discussed prior to an employees' voluntary departure.
