      Everyone is out for themselves- No culture

      Pros

      Very interesting projects and people of all backgrounds. Great location, semi close to BART

      Cons

      No focus on research: no push to present, or attend conferences; use old technology to run analysis; managers follow the money and not their passion The majority of people do not want to take the time and teach you their skills. No room for growth, and it feels like you are on your own-everyone is out for themselves. No culture at all.

      Pros

      Great benefits, interesting projects with great potential.

      Cons

      Leaders who do not lead, inaccurate systems and inconsistent reviews. Silos of popularity. Management is very clear there is little room for advancement beyond pay grade without rare endorsement.

      Pros

      Interesting projects and there are some really great people who work here. Benefits are generally good and there is opportunity to travel. Support staff is generally great.

      Cons

      As is the case anywhere, some managers are better than others. There can be a lack of communication depending on who you are dealing with.
