Lots of game playing by management

Sw engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good pay, good benefits, culture was decent, owned and operated by Americans unlike competitors. Good diversity, not a woke workplace.

Cons

Some of the upper management on the operations side have limited experience and some from places like nasa are shockingly lacking in critical thinking skills and common sense. A lot of bad managers and some managers scared to step out of their office. The hr is useless for any issues/concerns. Lots of checks and balances which slows development to a crawl.

Pros

Awesome mission, great people, hard, compelling work.

Cons

This company thinks they have 100,000 employees and is trying to act like it. It's really in full startup mode, and they are missing the exec leadership understanding of the dynamics and speed that requires to pull off.
