Horrible place to work

Pros

A few bright people depending on the group; and it's just a paycheck.

Cons

Don't exactly know where to start. This place is disorganized and functions like a mom pop shop in an area away from civilization. Many managers and non-managers are unbelievably incompetent and exhibit unprofessional corporate behavior. Don't think about lodging any concerns to HR because that falls on deaf ears and everyone goes along to get along. Some groups discourage using your brain and prefer if you "dumb down" your intelligence. Turnover rate in every form (layoff, resignation/quit, fire) is super high at all levels. Very unusual organization so you should really think hard before joining.

The management changed too often and promotions and lateral movement within the company was not a cultural aspect., which resulted in lack of understanding and leadership, respect of management. Lack of training and strategic HR..
