Decent place to work if you can get past the politics and silos.

What makes you most happy at work?

I have a lot of autonomy

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

Everyone works hard, not always smart but they do chip in and help.

What do you like best about the leadership team?

We have a well balanced leadership team. They aren't solely focused on market results and treat employees like they value them.

What would you improve about your company's interview process?

The interview process is awful, they don't seem to understand that not everyone is an engineer. The onboarding process makes up for it.

What are some of the best things about your team?

My team should be a bright spot in the company but our leadership is ineffective at best. They need to place a higher priority on leaders leading people over projects.

What is the best part about your compensation package?

Full comp package is excellent, bonus are good but the system to get them is an archaic favoritism model where directors and VPs battle it out to get individuals a good rating.
