      Pros

      I came to iDirect right out of college, not knowing much about networking and basically textbook knowledge, but I've come to really grow and love the whole telecommunications industry! The team I'm in is great, I have a manager who's really pushing for everyone on the team to grow into higher positions to contribute more, and the benefits like PTO are just awesome (base 17 days plus 3 sick days, and you're encouraged to take all of it, it is use it or lose it though).

      Cons

      There was a recent round of layoffs as part of a restructure, but I feel the company is starting to run more efficiently as a result of it.

      Nothing that would keep me from recommending it

      Pros

      - In the end, I liked and respected my teammates. A non-toxic, friendly, inclusive environment all around. - Sometimes we get office pizza.

      Cons

      - Layoffs large and small have been a yearly occurrence since 2023. The most recent layoff stripped the place to the bone. - Bad vibes and taking morale. It may improve one day, but at time of writing it feels like a dying company. - Latest product has, at time of writing, zero (0) customers. - Business outlook is truly abysmal. The real innovation in the satellite communication industry happens at SpaceX, Amazon, Eutelsat, Blue Origin, etc, not here, and it shows in the company's financials. - Development experience is AWFUL. Simple tasks like building code or running tests are painful and themselves tend to break. - Legacy code and tech debt is bad as the company hasn't really made a truly new product in over a decade.
