Swirling the bowl - Engineer Universal Electronics Employee Review

Pros

OK office, nice people to work with a few exceptions.

Cons

People with no engineering experience are making engineering decisions, leading to disastrous consequences (e.g., 2 YEARS behind schedule), Garbage software cranked out by junior engineers overseen by a short little narcissist continue to result in immature, unreliable products. Pay is poor, raises are around 2% (even with >10% inflation), bonuses are virtually nonexistent, the VPs awarded themselves 100k bonuses as a reward for dropping the stock price (and besides, $300k/year is hard to live on), and Paul gave himself $500k because he had trouble living off $850k/year.

Pros

A handful of talented good people.

Cons

The most beige, boring office you will ever see. No opportunities for growth. Many senior leaders with no vision, refuse to invest in tools, people or process. This place is going absolutely nowhere very fast. Incredibly short sighted management constantly making decisions based on quarterly earnings reports instead of the long term health of the company. Just a soul sucking place to be at times.
