Pros

Benefits and pay are fine. Employees are targets of management. Management operate from levels of fear, paranoia, and keeping all in the dark or dismissive of any level of honesty, integrity, or improvement. Wasting good employees who lose motivation and hope.

Cons

Management lacks leadership, vision., and any philosophy to move forward and grow the company. No incentive, creativity, teamwork.....Debilitating atmosphere where inappropriate behavior is rewarded and protected. Continual restructuring...changes of goals..Hard to know how to get somewhere if you don't know where you are.....

Pros

Competitive compensation, health benefits and 401k.

Cons

Every day was like a barroom brawl. Politics were the worst I've ever witnessed. Some people openly hated others. They have cleaned house by laying off primarily those who had highest salaries...this includes senior engineers and managers. A couple of managers were certifiable i.e. psychotic and sadly they did everything they could to keep their jobs by backstabbing others. Even during good times 2004-2013, it was par for the course to fire people. Mind you, not lay-off but FIRE. If one of the managers didn't like you for whatever reason, you were history. Most toxic company I have worked at in the 30+ years I've worked as an engineer.
