No ending layoffs!!!

Senior project engineer

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

People are super nice. They make it fun to go to work.

Cons

Too many layoffs. This company has been having layoffs for the past 1o years with layoffs every two years. Too many layers, employees are not allowed to speak their mind. They stop flexible schedules and they keep on reducing the benefits.

Pros

Great place to start your career. Great co-workers. Flexible hours. Can work from home on occasion. Good 401k match program.

Cons

Lack of training. Managers have no idea what you do, so there is a large degree of disconnect. Everyone is rated the same even though there are a lot of slackers at the company. Older engineers here that are not willing to implement any change in process to improve the customer experience.

Great employees, terrible Senior Management!

Business Outlook

Pros

Flexible schedule, great employees, and it's in a great location in San Jose. At the end of the day the job I do means something to the world.

Cons

Where to start???? Hmmm, lets see.......Senior Management cares only about Senior Management! Their bonuses are through the roof, while the employees who make all the money have very small bonuses (Paid for by freezing our raises for two yeasr). Perks are almost nonexistent for the typical employee, unless you consider "Dog Day" once a year a perk (Management cooks hot dogs for the employees to eat). There are no advancement opportunities, unless you are a expert "Ass Kisser", and when there are raises they don't keep up with the cost of inflation. UL is way too top heavy, and it seems they add to the Senior Management weekly!
