Pros

Creative environment with few tangible limitations to freedom in exploring new ideas. The average workers that make up the company are some of the warmest and supportive people of any tech company in the area. There is a palpable desire for some kind of breakout.

Cons

The company is still stuck in its past individual legacies that cause either no movement or a glacial pace of movement of new ideas, technologies, products into existing markets and rarely new markets. The average employee, though generally satisfied to have a job, is tentative and overly cautious while upper management seems to continually push a view of the company taken through rose colored glasses. Everything is far too average.

Pros

Broadly a good company if you’re in a senior decision making role.

Cons

HR policies are words only. Years go by without ability to take any PTO and carry over not allowed. Friday afternoons, all HR US employees stop working with all others working past normal business hours and into the weekend including late Friday asks to complete an action by Monday 8:00 AM that was known earlier in the week but only communicated to the employee after Friday business hours. Every Friday. Onboarding structure / sink or swim approach, no training. No sense of belonging unless you’ve worked here 20 years plus. No growth or development opportunities unless tapped on the shoulder. Many openings are never published, again tapped on the shoulder approach despite offering to volunteer. Dismissive company culture. Every Voice Counts initiative is code for: if you do share your voice, you are on a list to not consider for promotion or any projects that would give you more visibility across the organization to foster one’s growth.
