Pros

Nice location this side of 17. Great mexican food near by and views of the ocean on commute to Santa Cruz.

Cons

Finance management are all partially retired from an engagement standpoint. No insight or concern for rank and file staff. As long as they can assign the workload downward they can make it to little league by 5. Zero training, zero mobility and no attempt to foster growth among younger associates. CEO not held accountable for years of flat stock price and lack of vision to change it.

Pros

The people (under the manager level). They are what makes working there manageable. Great location for locals, not having to commute over the hill.

Cons

Incompetent managers who set unrealistic expectations, have zero appreciation for their employees, and work you to death! Training is non-existent. Everything is political. Raises are not reflective of performance. HIGH HIGH turnover. So much so that you are constantly doing your own job as well as someone else's.
