Pros

- Can be an intro into the tech world with no previous tech experience. - Some of the employees you meet here (not higher ups) are great and take you under their wing.

Cons

- No room for growth. They promise it but never follow through, sometimes even pulling the rug from under you. - Treat you like workshop robots instead of human beings. No flexibility, even though they expect you to be flexible for them. - They set you up for failure from the start. Training doesn’t prepare you for what working at Agate is like. - Communication from management is awful. Management likes to make promises (that sound good) but get eventually rejected by the president. So you’ll get in a constant toxic game of communication tug-o-war.

We never go to the beach. We could get at least 5k more as configs

Pros

Been here a while and glad I stuck it out. Things have gotten a lot better with new leaders and so far they've done a pretty good job changing things. Its definitely going in the right direction and we're hiring some really great people. The HR lady and the new managers seem to care about the people here. I hope they stick with it long enough to make all the positive changes they talk about. Benefits are really good plus we get a ton of PTO. Be nice to stay a while and see how this turns out.

Cons

Still a lot of baggage to work through especially with some of the people who have been here a really long time. I like my team but the complaining about the good old days is lame. It's 2026 people, just move on and deal with it. Things have changed everywhere. We're lucky to have ANY remote days. The micromanagement is still kinda demoralizing but my manager is cool so it doesn't really affect me. It's a drag that some people had to make it hard for the rest of us. Hopefully they'll see that we're all doing the right things now and reward that more.
