Pros

Very good at covering tracks.

Cons

Almost every review on this site is fake. HR and management create reviews themselves, and also tell their teams to write good reviews. The company is shady in its practices and does not deserve such a great status on GD. Talk to previous employees (as most leave to find better opportunities) and they will tell you the true status of this company. Very high turnover. There is also extreme nepotism, and yes, the Good Ol' Boys club (plus corrupt HR) is alive and well.

Pros

Talented engineers, industry standard pay, money for certifications but only when there is an immediate benefit for the company

Cons

Lack of integrity with both customers and employees. Very CYA, and blame is assigned to engineers for management mistakes. High turnover rate by very smart engineers who are tired of being micromanaged, overworked, and treated as disposable by incompetent executives, HR, and project managers. Don't just take my word for it, take a look at the negative reviews, everyone is saying the same things, yet HR refutes them each time. 90% of the positive reviews are fake and/or posted by current employees. Yet the company markets hard on its public image and "awards". Company is old school. Managers value engineers being at their desk 40+ hours and punching the clock over getting results, working less hours, working remotely etc. Vacation time is extremely frowned upon. Two types of managers exist, those who know nothing about how technology works, even on a very basic level, and the other are very senior engineers who know nothing about people skills, or how to work as a team. I would not recommend taking a job here. The upper management is so out of touch with technology it's truly amazing the company is still in business in 2019, but it's propped up by an incredible sales team. Definite concerns for the future of the company.
