Pros

San Diego is a nice office - had good people but most left for better jobs

Cons

No real advancement is given to employees - you pretty much stay at the level your hired at. Corporate is greedy and will do whatever they can to keep upper management making their salaries even if its at the expense of laying people off in branch offices. Communication is poor between offices. U are just an employee unless you are a "favorite"

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.
