Pros

Very nice people for the most part. I liked the phase gate process-everyone knew roles and responsibilities. Good benefits and pay. Great engineering.

Cons

can be long hours especially if you are working with the partners in Asia. Mixed priorities from upper management.

Pros

Great people in the company in Holtsville and they support one another. The building is equipped with a gym. Makes it easy to get to stay in shape and can be used during the weekend.

Cons

Mangers are remote (IL) and don't know team members or their efforts. Raises are very small. Manager are detached and seem to be completely un-aware of what the team does and their needs. The staff is small. Zebra like to outsource many jobs to Mexico, India, and China.

Pros

very little. The C-level management seemed to be very interested in their products and employees. However, there was not a lot of interaction with them. They had promised to keep all jobs when they purchased Motorola Solutions' Symbol Mobile Enterprise division but they already laid-off entire product teams within 6 months.

Cons

Mid-level management was incompetent and unwilling to adapt to change. The director of the PMO did not even know what an Agile Sprint was. The lower-level managers acted in fear. All projects were waterfall. They do not have the right talent pool to last another three years. The Senior VP was not qualified to hold his position but was very good friends with the divisional VP. there were lots of challenges the culture across the US, especially when dealing with the aggressive style in the NY office. Management was very wasteful with personal spending but review project-related spending on a weekly basis.
