Pros

Pros would be the culture before the layoffs, the ability for the company to create products quickly and masterfully.

Cons

Leadership. I believe this came from the pandemic elevating people who had no business being in senior roles being called to higher places of responsibilty due to the situation with the COVID boom. The emperor wears no clothes is another issue with the company. Eric needs people to tell him like it is and to assist in the growth of the company instead of a bunch of yes-men. Ironically communication, given it is a communication company. There needs to be more cross-pollentation of ideas amongst leadership. In person mandates for the drones isnt necessary and is in point of fact antithetical to the entire MO of the company, It is about leadership meeting and talking, for they decide the course of the whole operation, that needs to be done in person. This company has potential to be great, but it is rotting from the inside due to leadership.

Pros

Nothing about this company is worth noting.

Cons

One of the worst companies I have worked at. Management and leadership are disorganized and unsupportive. Employees get treated like dogs and are talked down to. No work life balance because everything is an escalation or because some “head” requested something. For a company so well regarded, they sure know to how be cheap and take away benefits. Parental leave is basically a slap you in the face. Comp is high but expect to have that dangled in your face or else you get let go. On site lunch and breakfast is nice but how much can you sugar coat the terrible work conditions with little snacks? Everything is such a mess. I’ve been here for almost 7 months and have not met a single person that enjoys their job. DO NOT JOIN ZOOM!
