Pros

Pay is competitive, great benefits, the team I am on has some brilliant engineers who I learn from and truly enjoy working with. The culture is very startup, even though Cequint was purchased by a larger company and then that company purchased by an even larger company. The people at Cequint are some of the most fun in the industry that I have had the pleasure of working with.

Cons

There is some "big dumb company" stuff that happens that can be a little irritating if you are used to startup culture. There is some startup technology debt here, in that some things were built too fast because of timelines during the startup days. We are making great strides to make the systems and networks more manageable.

Pros

Pays well. Almost all of the staff are fantastic engineers. Managers in the "trenches" are smart and capable. Decent kitchen and good work environment in terms of office space. Great location.

Cons

Health benefits are horrible. 401k is marginal at best. Current management above senior level up has a habit of undoing things that work and inhibiting productivity. Team "leads" are often afforded more consideration than management staff. Recruiting staff regularly oversteps their bounds and behaves inappropriately at times. Company has a long standing tendency of driving off capable and competent people in favor of yes men and people who are marginally capable of driving the business. There was once a fantastic executive management team that was slowly driven out and it's a shell of what it once was.
