Pros

If you are looking into getting in the mobile industry, Cequint is a good place to start your career. Its products are integrated with OEMs and mobile carriers, and provide some opportunities to learn mobile technologies.

Cons

Senior management are too immature and incompetent. Product directions and strategies change every month, if not every week. There are lots of politics and fights between TNS & Cequint Seattle & Florida offices. There are no bonuses or stock options. Health insurance premiums rise about 20% every year, and the employees pay a hefty percentage out of their paychecks. If you personally know the management before joining the company, you may enjoy the culture. Otherwise, if you are looking for job security and long term professional growth, look elsewhere.

Pros

Pays well. Almost all of the staff are fantastic engineers. Managers in the "trenches" are smart and capable. Decent kitchen and good work environment in terms of office space. Great location.

Cons

Health benefits are horrible. 401k is marginal at best. Current management above senior level up has a habit of undoing things that work and inhibiting productivity. Team "leads" are often afforded more consideration than management staff. Recruiting staff regularly oversteps their bounds and behaves inappropriately at times. Company has a long standing tendency of driving off capable and competent people in favor of yes men and people who are marginally capable of driving the business. There was once a fantastic executive management team that was slowly driven out and it's a shell of what it once was.
