Business Outlook

Pros

Salary is decent. Benefits are ok, but diminishing steadily. Work is interesting and meaningful. Austin employees are knowledgeable and friendly.

Cons

Communication is nonexistent. Not surprising that sales are so bad, the company seems aimless and top management is clueless. Employees are very dissatisfied and insecure. There is no trust in management.
