Pros

There are no pros at this company. None.

Cons

I've never worked in such a toxic environment in my life. The CEO is an absolute control monger who is "right" 100% of the time, no matter the situation. There is NO middle management in this organization. All 10 employees report directly to the CEO. He gives orders, and watches over your shoulder as you attempt to execute. The weekly meetings are total bash-sessions, as everyone is told what they've done wrong the past week. Every employee walks out of the weekly meeting nearly crying. Benefits are the worst I've seen. One healthcare option with a $3000 deductible. No dental. No life insurance. No disability insurance. There's barely an employee over 30 years old, as more "seasoned" employees have long since quit, due to the impossible situation the owner has created. Not once did I ever hear the owner say "good job" or "thanks", as he is so self absorbed in thinking he is God's gift. Never once!

Appreciate this — especially from someone who’s been in the trenches with us for so long. That ability to crank out top-tier work fast has always been one of our strengths, and sometimes comes at the expense of downtime. Honestly, feedback like this pushed us to take a hard look at how we were pacing things. We’ve made changes to our PTO approach and how we manage recovery after big pushes. Still a work in progress, but we’re listening and adjusting. Thanks for being part of what makes Cadence what it is.

Pros

The nature of the work is very diverse, each day brings something a little different. It's a very collaborative environment that builds strong team relationships through cross-functional tasks.

Cons

It can be quite the chaotic workplace at times, especially when trying to coordinate between the multiple different facilities throughout the country.
