CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good work / life balance - reasonable hours Interesting and very intelligent co-workers Better than being an adjunct (in terms of pay, time spent working, and self-respect) Paid hours (6, I think) for each employee for community service--company commitment to service

Cons

Stingy vacation / personal time policies (2 weeks to start for everyone, 7 personal days which are to be used as sick days but can't be banked), no sick time Little respect for test development work by senior management or by people in areas of the company outside of the test development area Little communication between different departments Company is trying to transition from sleepy academic enclave to more "corporate" style but seems incompetent at many aspects of being "run like a business." Repetitive work - intellectual factory line Extremely egomaniacal CEO
