Pros

Direct Manager good, his manager good but that is it ... Interesting engineering challenges, but supporting cast mediocre at best nothing can be accomplished with that composition ... Decent salaries at least from my perspective and bonuses as advertised ...

Cons

To many to count but to name: no work-life balance senior management cares only about themselves and their pockets... Top down management at worst ... Really bad moral, promotes a really bad attitudes ... And much worse ....
