"Without getting into great detail and specifics - it's a decent company. I worked in a 3-person team. The boss who created the arrangements, the computer-engineer-from-mock-up-to-final-master-guy, and myself who did everything else to make it happen. I took the position to learn how to get more involved in computers and technology and spent so much time and sleepless nights doing everything else I never got any better."
