Pros

Medical and Dental paid for.

Cons

Ran poorly. Managed by poor individuals. Sawstop the product is great. The company is ran poorly. Everyone is hired on due to being related to each other. It’s like a giant family. Half the staff is Stoned at work. No room for growth. You’ll be stuck doing the same boring job. Get a real management team!!!

Pros

The engineering staff is great. The engineering managers do care about their direct reports. Lots of fun innovative work.

Cons

There is a lack of focus with the teams ping ponging around on development without a process. This is due to the Engineering VP level. There’s been a parade of VPs over the last 6-8 years, continually changing team and product dynamics. Very reactionary, rather than strategic. It’s gotten slightly better, but still ad hoc reactions to things that could easily have been anticipated.
