Pros

Good company culture, flexible hours, nice compensation.

Cons

The company is very focused on outside certifications and ranks. This has lead this small company to have an overwhelming and unnecessary amount of paperwork and complicated procedures that are not taken seriously. There are two sides to their engineering department: Commercial and R&D. I had no experience working with the commercial side, but the leadership in the R&D department was unknowledgeable, unorganized, resistive to change, and displayed poor communication and poor judgment. I was often given unrealistic project expectations and both unrealistic and incomplete scheduling information. The feedback on my performance was virtually nonexistent and where it did exist was misleading and unhelpful.

On both the business development and phase-in sides of the aisle: Excellent teamwork Genuinely focused on providing quality results Room for eventual career advancement High percentage of management sets excellent example of work ethic Committed to customer success

Cons

At times management may struggle with work/life balance due to its customer-centric focus, but there has been notable improvement in the last few years.

Pros

I have nothing to commend them on

Cons

Zero bonuses of any kind in 3 years. Zero raises of any kind in 2.5 years. Zero company paid morale events. Pretty certain we were robbed a few hours of PTO, which from the start was less than my previous contract employer. HR is less than helpful. Apparently SLI was dropped from this original 5yr contract, after 3yrs.
