Pros

What the company was trying to achieve was great, and both the products and projects groups had great people working in them.

Cons

The upper management was clueless. As one of the senior engineers, I never spoke with upper management despite being a few feet away every day. They just didn't understand how to make the company profitable, and focusing all their energies on the EVSE side proved to be our demise.

Cannot get out of the "start-up" mentality

Pros

Mostly nice people to work with. Lots of room for creativity and if you like, ability to 'wear many hats.' Salary is pretty competitive.

Cons

Executive team doesn't appear to know how to get out of the 'start-up' company mode, which isn't working for a company this size and that's been in business 5 years +. Way too many Chiefs and VPs to get things done (all talk no action). Roles are not well defined. Lacking a lot of communication between departments (working in "silos"). Products are not working properly. Projects are mishandled.

Pros

Nothing. This company takes the best from you and give nothing in return.

Cons

Leadership is not people-oriented; Only profit driven.
