Vantaggi
Work life balance is good. Most engineers work less than 8 hours a day. Menlo Park office has a good culture with helpful people. Good career opportunities can result from this job.
Svantaggi
Compensation is not market competitive for the Bay Area. Bonuses are only for management. Raises are low and don't keep up with inflation. There have been 3 managers in the last 6 months. Upper management is unqualified and incompetent. Training is slim to none and engineers are left on their own to figure out what to do, leading to poor quality. There is no investment back into the lab. Equipment is either old or broken. Other negatives include: double standards, complacency, employee turnover, corporate push for billing, poor communication, manager conflicts, etc.
