Pros

Work-life balance and compensation is above average. Great medical benefits. Genuinely nice, smart, and kind people to work with.

Cons

Horrible place if you care about mental health. Leadership refuses to take accountability for themselves, blames others/make excuses. 0 empathy for the little guy from the top. Huge turnover rate that gets swept under the rug. The CFO would rather belittle and gossip about their direct reports rather than properly manage/guide them, terrible leader. COO is clueless and makes emotionally charged decisions that do more harm than good. The CEO doesn’t seem to learn from mistakes or care to take advice that doesn’t align with their own, leading to very questionable decisions. A lot of focus and energy are placed in all the wrong areas.

Pros

Some good, nice, and smart people. Good work-life balance.

Cons

Poor strategic direction. LOTS of bad hiring decisions. Leadership isn't in the correct roles. Cheapness. Not customer-focused. High turnover. Unnecessary roles. Headcount assigned in the wrong places. Being run like a large company, not a startup. Not taking risks. Office exists for no reason. Not enough R&D.

Good people, poor management

Pros

Super smart and hard working people, great medical benefits, perks are great (PTO, remote work flexibility, team events, etc.)

Cons

Executive management does not treat employees with respect, especially the COO, CFO, and CEO. Lots of turnover during my ~1.5 yrs there, and no company direction in terms of a go to market strategy and targeting strategic markets. The focus is too much on the R&D and educational spaces for photonics and I don't see this company taking off anytime soon.
