Pros

Some managers are really nice and work with you to let you come in later when you've worked all week from 7am-6pm or later. Coworkers are nice and friendly Some customers are nice and worth going the extra mile

Cons

Upper management sucks If you don't sell they harass you until you do even though they wen't through the same problems The company will ALWAYS take the customers complaint over what actually happened even if you are right Customer walks all over you and are never satisfied Customer always wants a deal even with their AAA discount and want larger car for no additional cost Company will force you to take the test for assoc. manager (even when you are not ready) and then ask why you did so horrible on the test when you fail

Pros

Great place to work in tandem with other professionals in your trade, always had a feeling of "family" working alongside my peers. We come together when times are tough, this is very rewarding,

Cons

The current economic and geopolitical spectrum have been proving a challenge to this industry as a whole, thankfully we are a resilient outfit with the best people at the helm.

Pros

It is possible to make a difference if you are determined enough. Many engineers work hard and most try.

Cons

The company has a ton of tech debt that it recognized, but is not being addressed. Management controls the time, scope and so quality is falling. The people they have hired lack fundamentals understanding of software development practices. The company often will make decisions to save small amounts of money with their facilities and tools they give to employees without understanding the opportunity cost that was lost. Overtime is required. You can't work here if you want to have a family or keep your family from hating you. Title inflation is real. Many people are actually performing one level down from their stated title and those that are not are only not failing due to putting in crazy hours. Middle management wont stickup for their people to ensure they are not burning out. They see it happening multiple times in front of them and they do nothing.
