Pros

For the most part the managers at every level are very good. I’d go as far as saying they actually provide great value to both employee’s and customers. Wellness days are cool. Free day off every quarter. Unlimited PTO Pay

Cons

Health insurnace Retirement Glass door states I must list 5 cons. There are not that many. For a profitable company retirement match is garbage. Benefits are less then ideal if you have a family.

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.
