Vantaggi

A great place to work fresh out of school. Easy and laid back for the most part. Company expectation is generally 40 hours/week. Some good people to work with. Benefits are acceptable and have some nice features. Great employee pricing on products.

Svantaggi

Pay is very low and based on Kansas salaries. Company thinks your biggest benefit is the right to work for them. No promotion or advancement opportunities. NO opportunity to get recognition or significant pay increase. Standard 'merit' increases at review cycle are the same for everybody. Company thinks they are innovating by integrating existing technology from other products. Management promotion is based on the good ol' boy network. Focuses hiring in cheaper new grads, not experienced employees. Company has lack of trust of employees.

Vantaggi

Good benefits and work life balance. It's a good culture and I've never worked at a place where your immediate peers are this helpful and pleasant to work with, even across teams and offices. If you want to just come in and do just what is required for your job and go home with the knowledge you have a stable job, this is the perfect place to work. I'd only recommend working here if you just want a job, but don't care about a career.

Svantaggi

There is poor career advancement, especially if you aren't male. Leadership does not care about leading people. The RTO has made working here less appealing. The excuse that you can't collaborate unless you are in the same building makes no sense when you work with people in 6 different countries. It is about control and appearances, all due to incredibly poor senior leadership strategies. The pay is also low and so is the quality of the software you work on. Leadership likes to talk quality, but they like fast and cheap. They will not support you in actual software quality nor implement changes to improve it. The same issues happen over and over without improvement.
