Pros

Good salary but new hire will have very difficult time to get adjusted with work environment.

Cons

There is absolutely no documentation for new hire to get to know the product that they will be working on. The company is run by paycheck collectors and incompetent Management. There is no future here.

Business Outlook

Pros

Great engineering group although engineering management is attrocious. Product is really challenging and interesting to work on however underlying technology needs to be improved.

Cons

Management is extremely unprepared to deal with long term vision. No real sense of direction is passed onto the staff, mostly because there is none.
