      Going from bad to worse

      Pros

      Pay and benefits are very good. For those who benefit from stock participation, that is a nice benefiit

      Cons

      Lack of a clear focus. No communication from upper management to keep troops on the right path. No one actually seems to know what the path is. Products that generate large amounts of revenue are being left to die with no investment in them to keep them competitive. With Verizon buying up all the competing software companies in the AVL space, CalAmp is going to be less and less of a player, thanks to poor decisions by management. Off-shoring software development to India is only making the problem worse.

      Negative & Demoralizing Enviornment

      Pros

      OK work hours in some departments

      Cons

      Women are not respected at senior levels and are treated as second class citizens. Male managers are possessive, condescending and dismissive. Outdated office culture which is similar to the 60's era (Mad Men). Unprofessional, reactionary, paranoid and outdated senior management. They're very resistant to improvements or keeping up with the times for the benefit of the company. Their motto is "We're not changing. You take your ideas somewhere else, if you don't like it here." Senior managers are untouchable and suffer absolutely no consequences. Subordinates are blamed and subsequently fired for the managements' wrong decisions.

      Pros

      Stock price rising. The company is moving aggressively into the software from being a hardware manufacturer.

      Cons

      Company doesn't share its good times with the employees. Have to get VP approval for small purchases. Endless meetings.
