Technical Support Engineer III

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Cool technologies to work with. Huge potential to learn if invested much of personal time.

Cons

No tiers, all engineers are frontline. No team structure or clear plan. Micromanagement and reactive management at best. No career progression unless on golden list. Part of EMC group which means that they are looking for more and more profits from RSA, hence the quality on many aspects deteriorates.

Business Outlook

Pros

Nice facility and campus. On-site cafeteria. Flexible work hours. Ability to learn new technologies that helps you to add to your resume, which you will need to do because you'll eventually get laid off.

Cons

Parent company EMC is in constant layoff mode. Non-publicized layoffs happen regularly, creating "fear of job loss" syndrome. Very-cliquey work environment, if you don't belong to a clique you are ostracized and then laid off.

Pros

It looked good on the resume when I wanted to find a new job.

Cons

The people I worked with were never eager to help or to share their insights over our work. I've had several managers during my years at RSA, it seems like they all hated being managers and had to do it due to lack of human resources.
