Pros

They consistently hire good employees, who are great to work with until they get frustrated with not being allowed to do real work by management and quit. The pay is competitive for the requisite experience and job title, just don't expect to be working on high-level projects or gain much useful experience.

Cons

The CEO and COO (son/mother respectively) are constantly condescending and treat everyone as though they're incompetent interns, keeping everything (even insignificant things like what project is up next the same week) top secret. Marketing staff relegated to giving out only canned answers on twitter and no insight into analytics. Full time engineers are put to work answering retail level customer support questions. Quality web developers have no input into the real product and are constantly having to rewrite basic things to meed managments ever changing (and poorly defined) whims.

Making a difference

Pros

Cutting-edge technology. Honestly don't think you can find the same experience anywhere else. Working with very intelligent people and those who want to succeed. It is hard to be successful here if you don't have an internal drive to make a difference. Team is very smart. They don't seem to make any "Average" hires. Makes sense

Cons

Would like to see a bigger office, maybe an office outside of Cincinnati. I think we're headed there soon though.

3D Printing can be day to day interesting

Pros

Software has high rate of approval among customers. Management prioritizes projects to improve software help. If you have an idea for an improvement, you can take it on as a project. Clean office, new hardware (printers and computers). Management is generally friendly and workable. 3D printing landscape moves extremely quickly, hardware manufactures are constantly coming to market or leaving market. Was apart of the "Core 4", early full-time higher. Left primarily due to job offer closer to family.

Cons

Emails can be draining, it was within job duty to have to answer emails on weekends and days off. Hard to advance in a company. Company has traditional conservative approach towards public image.
