      Management said not to spend more than 10 minutes on this.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Stock benefits used to be really good, so those of us "grandfathered in" make good compensation from them. Portland division has nice new office in a great location. Culture allows for pair-programming. Colleagues are smart and competent. Engineers are usually sent to one conference each year. On Thursdays, engineers meet for "development lunch" where folks present technical ideas. Once a week, many engineers meet up for an informal "technical book club".

      Cons

      As office grows, culture becomes more corporate. Management makes arbitrary deadlines and expects engineers to work overtime to reach them. In the past, engineers have been made to do a silly amount of regulatory paperwork. There are a fair number of low-value meetings that occur for regulatory reasons. No 401(k) matching. A culture exists where employees are discouraged from working remotely. We were told by management to fill out Glassdoor reviews, but to not spend more than 10 minutes on it.
