Pros

- Coworkers are nice, good team spirit despite daily hardships. - Social Committee & Town Hall free lunches are great. - Recognition in monthly Town Hall meetings. - Work/Life Flexibility (department experience may vary)

Cons

- Yearly restructuring is horrible for morale as good people lose their jobs while we make record profits for our board. - Long lasting consequences when these changes happen, infuses a bad vibe long after it happens. - Yearly increases are pitiful - hard to ask increase when yearly reviews happens right after restructuring. - Absolutely no bonus structure, so no reason to excel. - Top heavy, too many chiefs. - Nepotism, nepotism, nepotism. - Recently implemented open plan workstations, exceedingly difficult to work in.

Pros

They are starting to use others hardware, their hardware has numerous issues and is not supported. Snow plow solution is only positive, focus is on one vertical. Recent merger is not going well, change of platform and hardware are primary issue, along with lagging products.

Cons

Where to start: horrible products and support, customer needs are not considered at all. Sales strategy is sell, sell, who cares if it works. Management is inexperienced in transportation integration, stand alone product.

Pros

- Lots of great people (across sales, customer service, product development, etc.) with incredible knowledge about our customers and verticals - New products and solutions being developed or planned - Tons of potential to contribute to building a company and carve out your own path - Lots of autonomy and ownership (maybe this depends on which part of the organization you are in, but I've seen this span across many departments)

Cons

- To be honest, the actual technology isn't that special. Every telematics company appears to try the same things. Applying the technology to solve our customers' problems is the exciting part! - Old products appear to be beasts to deal with, but thankfully there are plans to end-of-life them - Change is hard for some people, especially those that have been here forever - Some people lack experience working in modern tech companies
