      Pros

      Nice coworkers and interesting CONCEPT

      Cons

      Anytime a company just decides on a Sunday and Monday they're going to lay off over 120 employees with no notice and a insult of a severance package this is a place I would beware of going to if I were any kind of future employee they make promises and make you feel like they really need you but there is no loyalty within the company. There are management issues and no true leadership. There is a go but they're two years or more behind that goal and are lying to their investors that they will be on time with their schedule. Honesty is not their strong suit.

      Huge Disconnect between HR/Employees/Accounting

      Anonymous employee

      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      So many passionate and professional engineers and managers. Everyone is hard working and committed to the project.

      Cons

      The clash between the project and Human resources is concerning The HR team is unprofessional and is rarely helpful. There is a double standard between the engineering team and the business offices with engineers being required to report in person and the HR team remaining absent and elusive. The accounting and procurement team are unstructured and have no accountability.

      TERRIBLE COMPANY

      Pros

      All you can drink coffee for pointless meetings! Beautiful floors! Nice windows! Nice cubicles that are rarely used!

      Cons

      Where do I begin... besides the layoff, the leadership of this company is horrendous. CEO speaks at a 5th grade level (that's being nice), HR needs significant training on how to deal with people and not share confidential information, unnecessary spending on items outside of critical path like purchasing a second location to only to lay people off... makes perfect sense.. ( oh person responsible was promoted after the layoff btw).
