      Terrible Managers / Toxic Environment

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The work is good but all the other factors make this a toxic place to work

      Cons

      Micromanaging Inexperienced Leaders Lots on infighting between managers Hire experienced people but some are threatened by knowledge and experience No career path for those who get hired in vs. been there for a long time. Seniority is more important than skills. The time will come when technology improves and GA becomes insignificant

      Great place to work

      Pros

      Friendly coworkers, good retirement benefits, good location.

      Cons

      If you're a entry level engineer, it may be confusing to establish where you want to grow. If you're a midlevel engineer and know what you want in your career, this is a great place to work (depending on your department of course).
