Pros

- Lots of autonomy - Nice coworkers

Cons

-God-awful benefits. Health insurance cost for people with families are so high that you simply can't work here. -Not a lot of paid holidays, skimpy vacation and sick policies. When branded as a tech company, you need to be competitive in the market. -Non-technical managers that simply have no business managing technical people and technical projects. -Completely tone-deaf CEO that believes that telling people they are doing a good job and offering them a "challenge coin" for going above and beyond will motivate them while simultaneously paying terrible wages and sub-standard benefits as the company is in the black for millions and millions of dollars. -Open offices where people are packed in to tight spaces with little amenity. -Mass layoffs, jobs relocated overseas, and no opportunity for advancement.

Pros

Decent benefits and some good leadership.

Cons

Also, leadership but there is some lack of communication and also I felt there is some nepotism present within the company. Also, did not appreciate some holidays being recognized by the company while (specific) others were not. Laid off due to a slower time which I kind of foresaw, but what was really a slap in the face was the separation agreement which was very one-sided and had a lot of questionable verbiage in it. I hope others read theirs before signing it as it is not worth the concessions offered
