Ventajas
The people at the Lexington office are some of the best people I've ever had the pleasure of working with. The flexibility of hours is also really fantastic (again, in the Lexington office). Aside from those two things, I can't really say much else positive about Quantum.
Desventajas
The list is nearly endless and it all starts at the top. The upper management, especially the CEO, are all completely disconnected from the reality of the business. Benefits are essentially non-existent. Medical benefits are very basic with very high deductibles. Even with the HSA, you won't get much use out of their health insurance. No 401k match... They constantly emphasize that Quantum is the largest and most advanced geospatial company in North America, and yet they refuse to offer one of the most basic benefits from a company of this size. They do offer profit sharing, which is paid out to your 401k after a certain period of time, but the goals set to meet are extremely unrealistic and the payout is miniscule. There is also the constant feeling of distrust amongst the different offices and the upper management. You constantly have to cover your tracks and watch over your shoulder, because if anything negative happens on a project, the upper management will look for any way possible to blame it on the lower staff. It doesn't matter if the job was bid $100,000 dollars too low, or that the due dates are unrealistic during the busiest season of the year. If something goes wrong with a project, you can guarantee that it's the production staff's fault. There is absolutely zero accountability for the people with a name on their door.
