Terrible management

Pros

Biweekly Costco deliveries of noodles and chips that are gone in about 2 days. Good resume filler. Good PTO accrual

Cons

Terrible management. They allow employees to be managers who have no idea how to lead or be in charge of a team. Having your own opinions is discouraged. They cram as many desks as possible into tiny offices. Getting supplies is next to impossible due to tremendous lack of communication between teams. Please know what you're getting in to before taking this job. It is frowned upon to use PTO and you will be asked about every little detail despite how private the matter may be.

Pros

If you're a masochist that enjoys being belittled, berated and are looking to commit career suicide, this is the place for you.

Cons

Management is atrocious. The CEO has some kind of mental condition that is very obvious the first time you meet him. It's clear that all terrible decisions and mismanagement start right at the top. I've never worked with so many people that were so miserable all the time. You will immediately get the impression that everyone is still there only because they feel trapped. After reviewing the Faustian contracts that they wanted me to sign to be hired on, I understand why. I anticipate this company being a black mark on my resume even though I got out as quickly as I could.

Pros

Cool technology if you are new to the industry. Competitive pay. You can learn a lot for as long as you can put up with the environment.

Cons

Unfortunately it all comes back to the CEO. He micromanages every aspect of engineering, and occasionally sales and marketing as well. Thinking for yourself is discouraged, and the CEO doesn't really value anyone's opinion but his own. This was true even with C levels and experienced engineers, many of whom left during my employment. On top of this, projects are often cancelled, or directions changed on a whim, often resulting in months of lost effort and general demoralization. Another thing that always bothered me was that skilled assembly workers were treated as disposable trash, underpaid, not given proper tools, and often required to work in unsafe and uncomfortable conditions.
