Pros

The benefits are good and the work schedule is fairly flexible. The products developed are the best in the industry. Customer Service and Technical Service departments are second to none - fantastic! The job is more stable than other companies.

Cons

Pay structure is very confusing and can not be explained the same way by any two people. The field and middle management come across as amateurs with regard to leadership skills. Communication is very poor and there appears to be a huge disconnect between the corporate office and the field management. The company wants to be focused in its mission and wants to develop a satisfied workforce but they do not seem to know how to get there. Organizational structure and policies become counter-productive in achieving their stated goals.

Pros

The actual coworkers and team members are great. Everyone is super supportive and just trying to help each other out.

Cons

Management: There’s a huge disconnect between upper leadership and the people doing the day-to-day work. Goals and priorities change constantly with very little communication, and it often feels like micromanagement takes the place of actual guidance. Work-Life Balance: The workload is completely unsustainable. You’re expected to handle an overwhelming amount of work, but you aren't given the resources or staffing to actually get it done without burning out. Expecting people to constantly work over their hours has become the norm. Lack of Growth: Career progression is pretty much non-existent. Promises of promotions or career development are thrown around, but they rarely actually happen. There’s no clear pathway to move up, so it’s easy to feel stuck and stagnant.
