Pros

Nice location (Tucson) and competitive starting pay. Rain Bird hires top notch people from other industries (unfortunately, senior management prevents these high performing individuals from making the changes needed to improve the company).

Cons

Complete absence of information sharing from senior management; fear-based decision making by senior management; inefficient and unproductive organization structure. Turnover is unlike any company I have ever seen. As a result, there are few people at Rain Bird who have enough experience to understand the customers and products. Sales and product manager turnover is so high that customers frequently joke with new hires whether they think they'll be at the company for more than 2 years. Most won't.

Pros

Lots of freedom and independence, not much micro management, can come up with cool ideas.

Cons

Hard to advance, people stay in their spots for a long time, remote employees excluded from advancement in general. Benefits are bad, health care terrible. 401k match is weak
