Pros

Great benefits, nice location, interesting product.

Cons

Bone-headed management in Product Development with zero-tolerance for mistakes, making everyone fearful to make decisions. This is touted as Accountability. In reality, they are stuck in analysis-paralysis and can't seem to figure out what to do. New products are held up because management has blamed engineering for poor decision-making and is looking to outsource design. In reality, decision-making is the responsibility of management and out-sourcing the design can't fix poor decision-making.

Pros

The benefits are good so far just like any other company

Cons

Terrible managers Employees are getting away with traveling without using PTO when they are on EDO because they are friends with managers. This raises concerns regarding fairness, policy compliance, and equitable treatment of employees. If the manager dont like you, Your life will be hell and they will find the stupidest mistakes to kick you out. Again, some people get away of not using their pto and they will travel and claim they are working while manager is okay with it. Bunch of hypocrites
