Pros

The concept of Inthinc's products is great. It can and has saved lives. There are some great people to work with at this company.

Cons

While the technology driving the products is great, the quality of the product is very poor. Product, hardware and firmware, is often released full of bugs and quality issues. Very little executive overview of the company has a whole. Several C and D level managers, but very little management is being done. No one has ever been held accountable for their own actions minus those that the executive team found expendable. The executive team never took responsibility for major issues and seemed to often point the finger at those that had very little to do or very little control over the issue. The executive team continues to grow as do their salary, but little time, effort or money has been spent actually getting to the core of the issues and putting resolution in place to truly help the company progress forward. Last month (August 2014) Inthinc laid off approximately 30% of their overall staff. Many engineers, technical support reps, supply chain and others were let go due to ongoing operation costs and not enough sales. All the while, all of the executive team remained on board and some even received promotions to C level positions. Due to Inthinc now operating at minimal staff, it does not appear that Inthinc is in a position to stay in business much longer. This company has the ability to do great, but it's plagued by a very top heavy, uninvolved, unsympathetic and blind leadership team. If Inthinc trimmed a little off the top and put that money back into the company and put new leadership in place (replace the CEO for starters), the company could go far and continue to help save lives. The sad part about putting up this review is that the executive team will most likely just try to find a way to have it removed and not listen to anything that is actually said here.

Pros

The people there have good intentions but they are constantly trying to make a sub-standard product function properly.

Cons

The company leadership does not provide a well thought out business strategy, They are unwilling to hold the engineering management accountable for poorly designed, unreliable and untested products. The products (both hardware and software) are released with known defects. There are many better quality, less expensive and easier to implement product available on the market they have a difficult time competing. They continue to loss major accounts to the competition for all the reasons mentioned above. The company is in an unrecoverable, downward spiral and I need to hit the eject button as soon as possible.

Pros

Many great employees who care about the success of the company. Very promising product. Very relaxed culture.

Cons

Seemingly disengaged Executive Leaders. Too many product lines make it difficult to be a subject matter expert. No processes No organizational decision making authority below Exec level No accountability for poor performance or mechanism to recognize good performance.
