Futurex

...because no one stays longer than that. The turnover rate is unbelievable!

Everyone distrusts everyone. This isn't a "family" company, unless you're directly related to the executives. The politics and games everyone plays distracts from actually getting any meaningful work done. It's 0% about your skills, and 100% about how you're perceived (outside your control). It's common to get thrown under the bus if someone else thinks that'll make them look better, even from your manager. 

Futurex is weirdly strict about so many things (inflexible working hours, no flex time, being seconds late to work will count to your vacation time, game room that you'll be written up for actually using). It's just a small company, but there is no focus or attempts on diversity or inclusion or building a positive work environment.

Basically, this is a teeny tiny tech company no one's heard of in the middle of nowhere, with no transparency, no trust, and no professionalism. People with this skillset should be in Austin or silicon valley - there's so many better options out there, there's honestly no excuse for considering a job here.

I've been with Futurex for about a year now. My background is in procurement and expense management, but Futurex gave me a shot to try a new role and it's been a great experience so far.

I'm a self-directed worker, so the "entrepreneurial" culture here is a great motivator. The interview process was professional and comfortable. I enjoy my coworkers, and we work well as a team. The main campus has great places to exercise and relax. The workload is pretty constant but manageable, with enough challenge to keep things interesting. I receive constructive feedback from my supervisor.

Some hierarchical structures within the company are still being defined and can be ambiguous at times, but the people here are pretty good about pointing you in the right direction when you need information. 

Overall, I appreciate the positive environment, fun projects, and good compensation and benefits. I would definitely recommend working here to a friend. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
Best part about working at company was the walking trail and gym. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Company moral is very low. Everyone is scared of HR and complains about the constant firing of employees. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Never seen worse company moral amongst developers / engineers. Micromanagement around times badged into the gate instead of quality of work produced is ridiculous. Would not work here again. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Badge into gate before 930am. Work on kubernetes deployments. And at lunch everyone talks about how HR doesn't care about the employees and probably enjoys firing people.

This company offers 0 training on something as technical as cryptography and empty promises. I know help desk positions that are compensated more fairly. They pass on qualified people because they don’t want to pay, Don’t be the next sucker. 

Good starting job for a graduate. Coworkers are friendly and ready to help whenever you need it. Supervisors don't breathe down your neck allowing you to work at your own pace. Problem is a group of us were called up on day and laid off just like that. Good job but terrible security.

Encryption business was innovative plus plenty of opportunity for interns great starting pay.  Family own business but was friendly and high expectation on productivity.

I have been with Futurex a little over 7 years and couldn't be happier! There are always new and challenging tasks, never a dull moment!  Not to mention we have wonderful leaders and a great group of employees!  I highly recommend joining the Futurex team!!!

Good employee benefits with health care and beautiful work campus.  
Co-workers were mostly young college graduates and fun to work with.

The job itself was great and fun. Everyday posed new challenges to overcome but it seems the challenges posed to upper management were too much resulting in many of us being laid off.

-	The campus is beautiful
-	Commuting into Bulverde is much easier than commuting into San Antonio
-	Good support from upper management 
-	The projects we work on are interesting 
-	Salary and benefits are above average
