Bad Management, Micromanagers, and layoffs

Sales representative

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The positive is working for a company with a long history and well know name in the testing industry. Most people are willing to speak to you because of their reputation.

Cons

The management at UL is atrocious especially in S&A. Most of the top managers left UL and were replaced by folks who have no idea how to manage. Bullying was the norm and when this was reported to HR, their response was to find a new job. Most of their top PM's, engineers, and sales staff have left the company.
