Pros

Great technology and products which pass as innovative in the security industry. Executives and founders are all founders of what they do (open doors and shoot video). Not a sweatshop environment in the least. Most people are pretty nice. The company is stable and profitable with continual record sales.

Cons

The company doesn't trust rank and file enough to keep the office supplies open; you have to find someone with the right permissions. Think that the business they are in is to track who opens doors and this is jaw droppingly stupid. Benefits are on the low side. Management is as unprofessional as any I've seen-- they curse, yell, intimidate, harass. The is no human resources person or group to impartially resolve issues.

Pros

Not many besides people trying to help each other on the team and management doesn't know what the left and right hand is doing. No transparent communication cross-department. No top to bottom communication from top management to bottom rung on the ladder.

Cons

Career Growth in engineering is awful. Not given equipment to do your job properly. The environment is toxic and led in the wrong direction. The location in Framingham will be axed at some point because they got bought by the parent company and office in NY.
