Great place to work. New leadership is bringing positive change.
They seem to have the employees in mind when making decisions. They actually care.

Positive mindset, goal oriented, direction
Sharing information with the employees as soon as possible
What is the best part about your compensation package?
Being able to balance work and private life
Really good health insurance package.
High cash base, worthless RSU & ESPP given decline in stock price
I love the unlimited time off and 2 1-week shutdowns a year, along with holidays.
