Pros

The physical space of the corporate office is impressive with plenty of amenties and parking is great.

Cons

No work/life balance. Employees are overworked and underappreciated. Employees pretend to be happy but underlying issue is they aren't. It's not a good environment to be in. Departments don't work together, there's not a whole lot of respect & people are very passive-aggressive.

Pros

They hire some of the best and brightest people i have ever had the privilege of working with.

Cons

The yearly restructures and eliminations of roles and lack of backfill for roles is troubling, causing individuals to be over worked.

Pros

Numerous opportunities for career growth, you just have to be flexible and willing to relocate. Great company that strives to create a having fun while being the best mentality while paying very well for the consumer electronics field .

Cons

The staff continues to become increasingly younger,immature and not very knowledgeable across the board…This is a bad combination.Have to hire more adults with real responsibilities like bills and kids not just the kids who live at home with a cell phone bill…
