Pluspunten

Join this company only if you're offered a position in Boston. The teams I worked with in other locations, twin-cities, San Diego are very hard to work with since the long timers who dominate most of the higher level work areas are impossible to work with. For entry level engineers, this is very intimidating environment at least from what I've seen in Vuforia. Some pros are below 1. Cross functional teams - Product team is excellent here. Kudos to the hiring strategy to bring in the best product owners. 2. Generous PTO policy 3. Perfect work life balance.

Minpunten

1. Tech leads - there are long timers with the company who are deemed very hard to work with. The managers/directors here are helpless since they are non-technical (see 3 for more info) both have very equivalent power that they cannot handle them. I have noticed many junior/senior (excluding principal) have left Vuforia projects because of this. The company is doing its best to bring in the best talent, but most of them leave in few years due to this. 2. Very average pay scale for East Coast. 3. Stop promoting QA as Engineering Managers. Was shocked to hear this has happened in the past which is evidently the root cause of #1.

Pluspunten

Great people, customers, products. The culture has improved significantly over the past 5 years or so, and now feels like a relatively modern software company. Exec leadership is very good, Neil is fantastic.

Minpunten

Mid-level exec leaders, VP level, are still very political. Salaries are way below average.
