      Good people, terrible management

      Engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Some very smart people doing the actual work

      Cons

      Sadly those people are treated terribly by upper management and especially the CEO. The arrogance of the executive team is unlike anything I have ever seen. It is common to have your ideas ignored or even to be stolen and have others take credit for it months later It is also terribly disorganized and there is no discipline in the organization with regards to documentation, project management and production quality. As a result the quality of the product suffers and many units arrive at customers broken straight out of the box. This company is run by researchers who are unable to make the transition to building a functional product that can actually be used by people.

      Down to earth company, good potential.

      Hardware engineer

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Unique technology, I've been here for 3 years, fun to see products evolve. HW group is selective, people are experienced, learned a lot from them. Several colleagues joined from competitors, should be a good sign. People get things done here, from top to bottom. No bad potatoes, no drama, hope there won't be any in future. CEO is honest and approachable, very hands on, still work on stuff in the lab.

      Cons

      Growing pains, just like any other startup. Many projects to work on, short on hands. Not well known to the outside.

      Typical startup but with little upside

      Anonymous employee

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Many brilliant and hardworking people developing an interesting and novel technology. - Good benefits and an excellent total compensation package (with some caveats).

      Cons

      - The organization as a whole is extremely disorganized. - All the worst aspects of a startup, where nothing is maintained or documented, making it a nightmare for customers and employees alike. - Management is stretched thin, causing them to put their employees at the very bottom of their priority list
