Pros

People are great. Company values (when they follow them) are We do the Right Thing, We have Each Other's Back, and Everyone Has a Voice. I converted from a contractor to a full-time employee because I saw the PSE employees live the company values. The company also embraced the Speed of Trust concepts and behaviors. Really proved how much you can get done when you trust your employees.

Cons

Something has changed in the last six months. C-Suite leadership has gone dark in communications, management style has changed from empowerment and trust to command and control. I was laid off this week, but I have felt these concerns for several months. I would ask questions about employee empowerment before joining the company.
