Pros

It can be fulfilling to take a project from bringing to end. Laid back office environment depending on where you work.

Cons

Pay is below average. Constant drive to "Go global" despite how poorly things have gone so far. Outsourcing CAD work... To Egypt... Yes, Egypt of all places. Outsourcing manufacturing to Mexico.

Pros

Great pay, Good autonomy. Exciting technology. Lots of opportunity to improve and license to make changes, the Grand Rapids office has many great people who built Rapistan who are the best part of working there.

Cons

Ruled by the quarterly results, little transparency in outcomes, little care for individuals, many instances of people being fired or promoted unfairly, lots of politics, constantly trying to look better than they are, No real values to speak of. Pray you have a good manager, they are unlikely to be held accountable
