Pros

Excellent benefits, every other Friday off except in Manufacturing. Making leaps and bounds in the health industry.

Cons

Management is snobby; have no idea what is going on beyond their doors. Randy hasn’t been the CEO for several years, Alot has changed since he’s left.

Pros

Absolutely fantastic benefits, including every other Friday off, zero health premiums, and the best 401k match I've heard of. Not overworked, very well paid (not everyone is, but I am). For most, there is lots of growth opportunity and encouragement to move around the company if you wish (none of this applies to me because of terrible management in my specific dept.). They show a decent amount of employee appreciation through bonuses, parties, swag, etc. It is a company with a lot of young-ish people and can have a very fun and casual atmosphere in most departments. Because people in the area all really want to work here, the employees are top notch and love what they do and work hard but also play hard together. Typically very collaborative.

Cons

As with most companies, there is some very bad direct and high-up management in some areas of the company. If you end up in the wrong department, you may very well have a particularly difficult and negative experience, like I have recently. But I previously had a wonderful experience here under wonderful direct management and upper management. There are some who are underpaid, but I think you just have to negotiate well when you sign on to work there.

Okay Place to Work

Pros

The benefits here are good, with low medical insurance cost, 11 paid holidays, a 401k. The people in the manufacturing department are also very nice.

Cons

The pay is okay for the job. The 12 hours shifts are very long, and brutal on your wrist and shoulder due to long hours and how the product is manufactured. Management is also very strict with attendance.

Pros

Stable, great people, great benefits, and if you are really lucky - travel.

Cons

If you get put on a team you don't like, you will most likely be stuck there for years. In the last few years, the teams have become very project manager-heavy. I know we need PMs and they are very useful, but the culture is shifting to where actual managers will ONLY talk to the Project Managers, who are often not that aligned with the rest of the team. This has been bringing morale down for a lot of software engineers who are actually leading the teams and making software engineers feel like there is little real growth opportunity, other than slapping a new number behind their title. It seems like recently marketing has decided they know the products more than engineers, and their designs and how to actually do the work is being forced onto software engineers. This has broken multiple systems across the company. I think this has to do a lot with the comment above about management's relationship with project managers.
