Pros

Nice campus, good benefits, and friendly people

Cons

Penumbra is grossly nepotistic. Promotions are not posted and staff are not given the opportunity to apply for promotions. Most director and above positions end up going to friends of the board. This is across multiple departments. The problem is completely systemic and goes to the top positions of the company (CEO, CBO).
