Pros

Colleagues are smart and easy to work with.

Cons

- VERY low pay, way below market value; unclear bonus plan. - Unhealthy work-life balance: overworked and management expect you to work at night time. - Poor management: Management doesn't care employees at all, they treat people as slave, and always short-sighted. They don't have career/talent development mindset, they only care about operational priority, current tasks, and short-term revenue growing. - Management force employees to submit PTO requests when internal systems shut down (because of company system upgrades and/or because of cyberattack); they also force employees submitted PTO when county government locked down during the pandemic. And expect you still work during forced PTO. - Management doesn't care people leave and why, they believe they will always find new employees with lower salary to fill in the empty.

Great people. Generous with company events and lunches. The industry is doing well with the AI/ robotics boom.

Pay sits well below industry standard. PTO is mandatory on holidays. Strong emphasis on tenure, with 401k vesting taking three years.
