      Great, laid-back place to work

      Software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Schedules very flexible, freedom to do what you want, working with lots of other very smart engineers, and good low-to-middle level management. A fun place to work, where the rules are lax, and you have the opportunity to mostly work on what excites you.

      Cons

      Incompetent senior management, many products end up being mediocre due to a lack of vision and execution from the top. At the end of each day, I would say I had fun, but ultimately my work has little positive impact on the outside world. A lot of empire building, and resistance to improvement or change.

      big company on the down way

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      a lot of teams you could choose to jump if needed, though not many openings in the past 2 years

      Cons

      if you dropped to bottom 10% of performance, you are done. Unlike the years before 2009, they will cut off those guys
