Pros and cons - Recensione dipendente - Software Engineer presso SEP

Great place to work. The leadership does care for their employees. The employees of the company are the reason why this organization is worth working for.

Title growth is slow. Sometimes resources to perform work can feel out of reach.

People tend to be nice and care about the work. Projects can be interesting.

Well below average pay for software. Mandatory in office 5 days a week. Constant turnover, the company seems to quite effectively make ambitious people leave. Company has been around over 30 years yet can't grow past 200 employees. For a company that's been through the tech boom to still be so small, you know it must be poorly managed. Was told to expect 10%-20% of compensation to be in ESOP shares, received 5% instead. Previous to this year, it was at or above 20% for 7 consecutive years. Now that there aren't many shares in circulation, newcomers will receive very few shares while pumping the bags of those who already have them (share price up 24% this year).
