Company to Avoid

Recommend
CEO approval
Business outlook

Pros

Opportunity to travel and work in varying projects, interact with differing people and technological needs, and generally with great (but fatigued) co-workers.

Cons

Incompetent and abusive top management. The chairman of the board, married to the president/CEO, is a Stanford professor who has great fear and resentment of people with insights that often extend beyond his own vision. Workers are frequently told to perform actions that are different from what the customers want, putting the workers in difficult positions with displeased customers. Management makes frequent trips to China, with apparent technical exchanges, and runs the Sunnyvale company like a tiny fiefdom. Company meetings seem to go on forever, and certain employees are excoriated during the meetings for reasons that seem to have more to do with how management respects them rather than their actions or lack thereof.

Pros

Many of the individual employees, not related to family members a nice, easy to work with, collaborative, talented, and skilled.

Cons

Nepotism. Most of the top earning employees produce the least amount of output and all related to the CEO/CTO. Has failed to grow for decades. Feels more like a sweatshop than a legitimate business.

Pros

good office environment, very entrepreneurial spirit. no excessive supervision. while i can understand why some individuals might say that the office plays favorites, it's more like a specific underperforming employee might be "less of a favorite" than everyone. else. Good compensation and solid benefits, management cares. there are no firings or workers being laid off. management will let individuals know they are underperforming, which gives them time to switch jobs if they want. compensation, particularly bonuses are extremely merit based.

Cons

bonuses are extremely merit based. long staff meetings every week. management and employees are often traveling.
