Pros

Good software and great recruiters..nothing else good to say really. Nice office space and cold soda for free. And the bathrooms are clean I think

Cons

Under qualified management who discuss openly the poor culture and blame it on the corporate office in California. And the management is terrified to hire anyone who has more talent than themselves, it's no wonder people rarely stay for more than a year. The corporate office needs a complete overhaul of the management at the Utah office and needs to put in some true professionals.

Pros

fairly lax with lots of time to do things

Cons

many. Former CEO ran things poorly and took in managers who brought along their problems and animosities with them. Not only that, they were allowed to invite their friends to come and join too, many of them owing their jobs to someone creating a bro culture. Even though top mgmt changed since the sale, its many of these people still there to this day. Most of the systems were a black box, existing engineers were mostly uncooperative to keep their knowledge to themselves, the offshore engineers in one particular country were especially bad for this. I have seen major accomplishments achieved by someone, where so many others had failed, only to get fired soon after.
