Pros

High pay Decent benefits Access to cool hardware Free lunch Awesome coworkers Modern office space

Cons

Do you like high intensity work environments with shifting requirements, unclear deadlines, and little to no planning? Ubiquiti may be the place for you. If you do chose to work here, you'll be blessed with a wide variety of underrated perks: - hostile international politics between offices competing over the same software products and the CEO's fleeting adoration - mass firings, even in mid December - unclear leadership and almost no product owners or planning staff, causing a constant base level of widespread confusion among engineering staff - a company culture that values fighting your coworkers on Slack over civil discussion and thoughtful planning If all that isn't enough, get ready, because Ubiquiti's wannabe Steve Jobs and professional Slack-troll CEO is guaranteed to swing by your office in camo joggers and Bape NMDs to tell you your app sucks and ramble about switching from React to Angular 2.

Pros

* I get to see and test some pretty cool products, and help the developers refine and improve them * There are plenty of opportunities to learn and improve your skills * The pay and benefits are fantastic * I get to work with some brilliant people, both on my team and in other departments * It's incredibly satisfying to find an issue and see it fixed

Cons

* Priorities can shift quickly, so be prepared to be flexible * Occasionally it can seem like our results for product testing are brushed off by the developers * The management structure is very flat, so upward movement is difficult * Did I mention that priorities shift quickly? We test dozens of products, and we are expected to produce results very quickly * The job is technically hybrid, but because most of the products we test are hardware, it can be difficult to work from home

Pros

- Startup mentality (lots of independent, meaningful work) - Take your own initiative (need to be proactive with tasks) - Good for expanding knowledge (get to work on several different product lines) - Flexibility (able to build your own hours, work when you need to, to get tasks done) - Benefits and Pay (amazing pay and benefits from the employer, would not trade it for anything)

Cons

- Face-paced environment (tasks can change on the daily, it's challenging but rewarding) - Working overtime (might be asked to work outside of normal hours - help finish urgent tasks) Overall, I think if you are looking for a challenge this is the perfect job for you. You are able to push yourself and learn a lot about the world of technology (networking, cyber-security, surveillance, etc.) So many different and unique products that Ubiquiti produces.
