Pros

There is interesting work available and very busy. Team members are very flexible with any sort of personal circumstances.

Cons

No potential career growth unless you have a very specific skillset that will not be disclosed. The goalpost is always moving so don't expect to move up and have a salary increase and/or bonus conversation. It is "rewarded" if you work yourself around the clock - it is said that isn't expected of you but that's what your managers will be doing - the reward is more work but no more pay. They (managers) will also offer you no guidance or actual teaching. Everyone is friendly enough, but they will talk about you behind closed doors. If you would like to increase your skillset, this is not the place to do it, rather, just repetitive work with no clear guidelines or feedback.

Pros

whelp, their hiring. So if you're looking for an entry level position, they've got them open

Cons

Where do I start? If your goal is to make a tangible impact, change things for the better, or grow a modern career, look elsewhere. Stifling Red Tape: The company is drowning in administrative bloat and ancient, worn-out processes. It is nearly impossible to implement meaningful improvements because every minor change is strangled by bureaucracy. The organization simply lacks the capability to scale effectively. (They still haven't fully implemented Bussman, who they acquired more than a decade ago) Short-Sighted Leadership: Upper management is entirely hyper-focused on hitting short-term quarterly metrics at all costs, completely sacrificing long-term strategy and sustainable operational health. Subpar Compensation & Benefits: The base salary is hardly competitive with the current market. The benefits package is remarkably weak—health insurance options are disappointing, and you start with a meager two weeks of vacation. Zero Performance Incentive: There is no financial upside for regular engineers. Bonus potential is completely locked away until you reach a "manager of managers" level, leaving the actual individual contributors with no skin in the game. If you are a paper-pusher who thrives in a rigid, stagnant environment, you will love it here. If you want to build the future, go somewhere else.
