Pros

Medical device development so work has meaning

Cons

The work environment is horrendous. Cubes have no privacy and no space for the equipment you are actually supposed to develop on. Computers provided to develop on are old and IT routinely uninstalls tools needed for development. Leadership does not trust it's employees. Pay is low and there are no opportunities for advancement.

The best company I’ve ever worked for.
