Compensation is Falling Behind

Developer

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great technology, twice weekly catered lunches.

Cons

Only 80% coverage on Prescriptions. Salaries are falling behind the market. Bonuses have been limited even though we are making a profit, no replacement for RSU when we were public. C level management needs a refresh, with new ideas. Sales needs to work on their customer reputation (the only reason they make the sales they do is the products, most techs know to avoid the free tools due to the overbearing sales pitch). We are losing a lot of senior staff to better paying companies.

Good, Unless You Want a Family

Developer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good and stable place to work. As far as "benefits and perks", it's great -- if you're single, like BBQ, tacos, potato chips, cookies soda and the gym.

Cons

If you want a family and you're a woman, beware, you should look elsewhere. There is NO maternity leave. There is 2 weeks of "parental leave", which is paid, but that's it. Do they really expect a woman to return to work after 2 weeks after just having a baby? If not then, what are her options? Otherwise, you'll have to buy disability insurance and use your PTO.
