US engineering in peril

Pros

You'll work with some really good, hardworking people

Cons

There's a big difference between working for the US team vs Sweden or other COs. In US, you'll be severely overworked. No work-life balance. Average is >50hr/wk. Salary, so no OT unless your state mandates it. Hiring process takes months. Losing engineers every few weeks. Running on fumes. They're looking for people who will do anything to please the customer. Then make it impossible for you to succeed. Getting more toxic every day. Sales constantly bend/break rules and load you up and set impossible deadlines. Not their problem! Customers expect the "best" and execs expect you to magically deliver. Old tools, outdated infrastructure. No bonuses.

Pros

Able to work remotely, no constant micromanaging

Cons

Employee incentives gone, company culture is about the almighty dollar now, "small town" feel of the company is gone due to such growth that now we feel like just employee numbers and don't really matter, remote employees aren't treated the same as in-office employees.

Pros

Intelligent, smart, humble, helpful community of Engineers who just get stuff done!

Cons

The application is probably the most feature rich on the market today, which makes it highly customizable. The Engineering background they expect for the amount of pay they are expecting you to do it at is unrealistic in the United States.
