Pros

Nice campus and met some great coworkers. Decent work/life balance and considerate of employees with children.

Cons

Constantly understaffed due to trying to cut expenses leaving most employees overworked and unappreciated with unrealistic workloads. This company moves people around without a plan in place because they are too cheap to hire more people, leaving current employees to take on additional work without the additional compensation or a say in it. If you want to move up in a company, don't bother holding your breathe as it is nearly impossible. People who don't deserve promotions get them leaving others that actually deserve them disgruntled. This company also creates new executive level positions for no reason. No one knows what the positions are and when asked even upper management can't give you a straight answer. Another example of poor decisions made by people who are trying to run this company. This company says that they value communication and feedback from their employees during quarterly coffee lounges, yet the CEO himself is unable to answer questions point blank and talks in circles with no real solutions. NO TRANSPARENCY! Not to mention that the CEO of this company doesn't even live in San Diego, and therefore has this delusional perception that his employees are happy and isn't even here to witness the company morale first hand.

This review is difficult to see, but we do value all feedback and are listening. Communication is a priority. Our monthly in-person Coffee Lounges for direct conversation with our CEO, weekly forums, and a very busy internal company news dashboard are just some of the rituals we have to foster regular communication across all departments. These gatherings are often radically transparent and where we learn how you’re feeling and what you need…we hope you did speak up and participate. Thank you for your time with us.
