Pros

They have an HR consultant who really does a good job at finding people who are enjoyable to work with. The benefits are pretty standard.

Cons

Pay is definitely below the average. Upper management is unaware of how day-to-day business actually runs and so decisions don't always reflect what could be best for workflow. You have to prove you're capable of doing the position before you get promoted.

Pros

Coworkers are great, remote work is nice, PTO isn't bad either.

Cons

Limited to nonexistent training, Low pay and raises Promotions take forever. Might get a promotion 1st or 2nd year then not see one for years. Workload is not manageable long term, hence high turnover. Limited employee recognition for engineers. Mainly upper management and PMs getting the praise. Yearly review is a waste and a simple conversation about the year would be better. Timesheets have become an annoyance to fill out after the financially down year.
