Great team, but advances are slow.

Pros

Great benefits...401K matching, PTO and health plan all start from day one Direct supervisors are terrific. Never an issue when I needed to take time off for emergencies.

Cons

Lay offs every year for as long as I've been here. Annual raises barely cover rise of cost of living.

Pros

All engineers work as a team. Our relationships are more that colleagues. It's like a family here. Good for fresh grads for learning and job experience. Opportunities to travel around. (depends on the project you are incharge)

Cons

Bad management. Top managements are thinking for themselves only. (cost saving has become the main priority, everything is about cost) Lack of appreciation. Salary and increment are not competitive.

Pros

1) Some fantastic people who care and want to do a great job. 2) Competitive salaries (more than competitive at the director on up levels), good benefits 3) Most roles have a good work-life balance

Cons

1) The culture is not very good. Lots of layoffs, constant fear of losing your job. People protect their jobs, and don't worry about the company or the organization outside of their direct team 2) Things are often dictated at the micro level on high from company HQ 3) Most roles are just about executing plans from above. Innovation is often talked about, but innovative ideas are quickly squashed.
