Pros

The company offers a competitive salary and benefits, including excellent health insurance. They have a very strong engineering team.

Cons

Middle management is untrained and unprofessional. Mostly strong engineers who have been promoted but not given management training. Some middle managers have big egos that get in the way of collaboration. In its worst moments, management disparages employees.
