Pros

I've never worked with a more talented and caring group of people. Team leads were deeply invested in the success and growth of their reports. Great work-life balance. Hard to beat the benefits.

Cons

Lots of opaqueness in upper management. Inexplicable decision-making around org structure (and restructure...) and process. Feedback was asked for, but never listened to. It seems like weird office politics started filling gaps left by changing leadership and process. The culture that used to dominate is quickly evaporating. What used to be one of the best places to work in Utah is devolving into something unrecognizable.

Pros

Competitive pay, reasonable benefits, and perks. Prior to recent changes, the company culture made this an excellent place to work.

Cons

Unfortunately, since Dan Goldsmith took over the company has been incredibly poorly managed and is now going downhill at a rapid pace. Way to much money spent on salaries for middle management while support and engineering suffer. Bridge was an excellent product that they spent years developing, and then they dropped it mere months after trying to sell it. It's like they spent an entire season planting crops, waited til they were half-grown, then said "whelp, we haven't sold any yet" and set fire to the whole field. The culture was excellent and the company was making excellent gains until about a year and a half ago when Josh Coates stepped down. A really disappointing end to what used to be a great company to work for.
