Pros

Fantastic product, life saving, great CEO

Cons

Recently hired management, yell and berate employees on a regular basis. Expectations of working long hours, and weekends on a regular basis. They say it is not the case, but the facts prove otherwise. Very little information flow downward. Interviews, even for engineers, are only done by senior management, resulting in a lack of support for whomever is hired (they don't even understand this). Was a great company to work for, but not anymore. Unless one shuts up and does what one is told, even if it is incorrect, expect to be severely punished.

Pros

Interesting technology, technical opportunities abounded, great benefits.

Cons

It became obvious the company was going to be moved to Minnesota. Also, company in-sourced from India denying engineering opportunities to New Englanders..

Pros

Good technology that is about it. Wall street loves them, or at least it did.

Cons

many 483's and now a warning letter. Quality Department Lacks leadership. Has been lacking for many years. I don't understand why the CEO allows this to continue. The only explanation is he doesn't know or doesn't care. Either one is bad. Morale is poor and most of management doesn't care, probably because of hefty stock options for them and with most of them being clueless.
