Pros

Used to have a good atmosphere with great people

Cons

Senior technical management incompetence destroyed the place. As an example, senior technical management person insisted project be done a certain way despite the protestations of 3 senior and very experienced engineers (over 60 years experience between them). Dissenting engineers were ignored and re-assigned. Project subsequently failed after the third re-write. The same thing happened with another project. Meddled with things they shouldn't have and insisted a certain framework was used when totally unnecessary. As a result project was delayed months.

Pros

None that I can think of.

Cons

The company has significant issues that make it difficult to recommend as a long-term workplace. HR support is virtually non-existent, leaving employees without meaningful assistance when concerns arise. Favoritism appears to influence decisions more than performance or merit, creating an unfair work environment. There are very few opportunities for career growth, and many employees find themselves in stagnant roles with little chance for advancement. Even when employees consistently exceed expectations and earn recognition, raises are infrequent or nonexistent, making it difficult to feel valued for hard work. Additionally, there is a noticeable lack of professionalism at the management level. Communication, accountability, and leadership standards need significant improvement. Overall, the company would benefit from investing in stronger leadership, a more effective HR department, and a culture that rewards performance fairly.
