Pros

two times per week lunch is brought in. unlimited pto. nice offices. a fair share of smart people to work with.

Cons

way to much work, the unlimited pto gets ruled out by your boss telling you things have to be done earlier. company split into two-google and microsoft. both ran totally different. management on microsoft side is terrible. cto loves to micromanage while sipping coffee all day. poor work life balance.

SADA Systems always appreciates feedback and uses it to make changes for the better. I would like to address some of the concerns brought up in this review. SADA is a growing company and delivers cutting edge technology solutions to its high profile and sophisticated clients. As indicated in some of our other reviews, employees work extremely hard to deliver on high expectations. People who are looking for a “punch in, punch out” job will not thrive here. We trust our employees to make time management decisions and provide an environment that encourages personal growth and development. With regard to turnover, our People Operations department has reported our voluntary turnover rate for 2015 YTD at 7.7%, which is a very low rate. We strive to hire and retain rock stars, because it is also what our clients and partners expect.

Pros

SADA has been very fast paced with it's fair share of challenges. There is a startup feel in my department which really lets me be my own entrepreneur within SADA. That is exactly what I was looking for and it has been a very good fit.

Cons

I don't really have any cons, at times we are over extended but that is because we are growing so I can appreciate it. the unlimited PTO can be tough to manage on my team but i'm learning!!!

Pros

The culture of SADA is one that is supportive and ever-changing. The industry that we're in keeps things fast-paced and always on the cutting edge of technology. As it's a family-owned business the Leadership genuinely cares about the employees. I've worked at large companies where you feel like just a number and not valued, but here you can surface your ideas for improving a process, building or creating new things, or how to make the company culture even better. You can definitely make a difference here if you're willing to put in the work. Other pros: unlimited PTO, quarterly bonuses, monthly happy hours, catered lunch twice a week, after-hours tournaments (poker, ping pong, etc.), volunteer opportunities, open door policy with Leadership, professional development funds.

Cons

If you're someone who wants a steady 40 hour work week, this isn't the place for you. Sometimes it requires working later or on weekends. Not all the time, but it's definitely a reality of working here...and many other places. I wouldn't necessarily call that a "con", but rather a reality.
