Pros

The pay is decent and the benefits are fair. Office is close to public transportation, and although modern, very much has a start-up feel to it

Cons

This is an absolutely horrible place to work. You are micromanaged at every moment, continuously challenged and never allowed to try new ideas. The products are designed to fail and consistency full of quick fixes that only add to the never ending increase in technical debt. Very high turnover in this company. At least 15-20% of the full time staff left in the last 6 months, many of them senior people.

Pros

- Decent pay and good benefits - work truck with gas card -good experience

Cons

- management is disconnected from field employees - review process does not reflect employee performance since managers do not go out in field in order to properly assess job performance - poor communication which leads to chaotic project implementation - no standardization of necessary info for each customer site. You walk in completely blind each time you visit a customer you’ve never been to - safety is important, but corporate pushes redundant messaging so frequently i believe it has the opposite of the intended effect - forced to wear long sleeves FR shirts in hot weather even when you are not exposed to fire hazards any more than a standard office employee
