Pros

Work half day on Fridays.

Cons

If you have some love and respect for yourself please DON’T APPLY TO THIS COMPANY! This company is a combination of low pay and long hours of work on projects that always go over budget. They burn out their employees, and there is no real mentorship. The company is not diverse, no women, or younger people, this creates a big gap between the senior level and the entry level engineers. Your hard work is not appreciated, even if they say it is, so be expected to work long hours because project deadlines were due yesterday.

Pros

Lunch and learns are nice. And they do have clear career growth timelines.

Cons

They expect you to pay for daily parking which adds up fast. Not flexible WFH. Micromanagement and harsh. Lack of middle engineers because they all leave once they have experience yet leadership does nothing to retain.
