Interesting work but not a great place for upward mobility

Business Outlook

Pros

We get to work on a very interesting and difficult project involving robots. Most people are enjoyable to work with.

Cons

The management team is basically hand-selected by the CEO, all coming from the same past company. As a result, there is little upward mobility.
