Pros

Some benefits are decent, but they are not enough to offset the below-average pay.

Cons

-Poor work-life balance due to an overly strict in-office policy — management closely monitors attendance and the number of hours spent on-site -Ineffective engineering management — many leaders lack proper communication skills, technical and domain knowledge, accountability, and motivation, making them unfit for their positions

Pros

Benefits including profit sharing and bonuses are great. The breadth of this company provides a great opportunity to try out different career paths or boost your current one.

Cons

In my current role, I am working overtime more often than I'd like with recognition that seems to only go so far until it sizzles out. That may be tied to the size of the company itself, where promotions work in a "trickle down" manner.
