Pros

Diversity of team. Lots of room for growth, if willing to put in the long hours.

Cons

Those with a visa are stuck in their situation. Lack of Follow through on Promises made by Upper Management. Lack of viable path for long term success. Unlimited PTO is the only benefit of value, if you can manage to use it. Haven't seen many truly utilize the benefit in years. They have good insurance for those with families.

Pros

Strong leadership and a team of exceptional people who are both inspiring to work with and work for. A mission-driven organization bringing truly disruptive technology to market.

Cons

With ambitious goals and a mission-driven culture, expectations can be high, which may be challenging for some, but it also provides great opportunities for personal and professional development.

Pros

Those who have left or are planning their exit are united by the shared experience of navigating a sinking ship.

Cons

Toxic Leadership Culture: Management is wildly inconsistent. Directions change by the hour, making it impossible to meet "moving target" goals. There is no long-term vision—only reactive fire-drills. Systemic Gender Bias: If you are a woman, expect to be interrupted, ignored, or talked down to by the executive level. It is very clear that respect is reserved for the "boys' club," regardless of your performance or expertise. Compensation is a Joke: The company expects "rockstar" effort for "entry-level" pay. They are consistently under-market, and there is zero path for merit-based raises. Also, known for wage decreases due to lack of business. The Scapegoat Mentality: You will be blamed for failures caused by poor high-level strategy or technical issues outside of your department. Accountability only flows downward here; leadership never takes responsibility for their own mistakes. Financial Red Flags: Gross mismanagement of company funds. While employees are told there’s no budget for raises or essential tools, money is seemingly incinerated on vanity projects and poor executive decisions.
