Pros

* The people doing the real work are great! Everybody wants to get work done and people get along well. * Good pay.

Cons

* Management is horrible!! The managers stay here forever since nobody else will hire them. They only manage up and make numbers look good for senior management. * The managers here get paid very well and make working very difficult instead of enabling their teams to work better.

Pros

Great people, smart people. With new CEO, maybe things will get back

Cons

Been a horrible last 3 years. Non-stop re-offs, new leadership that cut everyone and brought in new people who don’t know anything. No clear priorities, no leadership.
