Great company good management
Mar 30, 2023 - Algorithm Engineer in Ann Arbor, MIRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Great place to be, management are all understanding of their employees.
Cons
Usually working more than forty hour work week
- Current Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Silicon Valley Tech company in Ann Arbor Good Pay Good Education benefits Lots of opportunities for different roles Signing Bonus Stock options
Cons
Seems like it may be a slow climb to advance to a higher position with raises and promotions only once a year. Could be considered stressful at times but I think that’s part of the fun. Starting PTO is 15 days could be higher as that includes sick time

Ok company, bad medical
Feb 25, 2023 - Customer Service Engineer II in Denver, CORecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
The company is quite progressive.
Cons
The medical coverage is fairly terrible. High premiums, high deductible, and often denial of coverage for medical treatment. Pay has not kept up with inflation, nor has it kept up with an increase in travel requirements or separation from family. I have seen a large number of gatherings and events, but these are not available for remotely located employees. There are also localized benefits at official sites, but there is no compensation for the lack of these for remote employees. Recently made aware of many benefits and pay differences for employees in other countries, and it would seem that in the United States the company provides just above the minimum of what is required by law and regulation.

Busy depends on the team you are in. Relatively low salary compared to big names in bay area
