Awesome Place to Work

Pros

Been at ATF for just over two years and can't say enough good things about it as a place to work. What we do is super cool and interesting. Great co-workers all around - lots of smart, helpful, driven people. Solid leadership (they've brought in and also promoted some really great leaders recently), career development opportunities, pay is great, nice annual bonuses, lots of community involvement events, and they've also had more employee appreciation and DE&I events/outings for employees over the last couple years - it's nice to feel appreciated and have fun with our coworkers.

Cons

Honestly can't think of any. This has been my favorite place to work in my whole career.

Pros

I’ve worked at Advanced Thin Films for several years now, and I worked at a few different optics companies prior to my employment here. I think ATF is a great place to work for many reasons, but for me what really makes them stand out are the opportunities employees are given to move up in the company. We recently had two different technicians move off the production floor, one moved into sales and one moved into accounting. If you’re a hard worker, you will absolutely be rewarded here. I work with a great group of people who love getting together outside of work and take advantage of the beautiful Colorado Rocky Mountains. Advanced Thin Films is a business unit of IDEX Corporation who provides us with fantastic benefits and great pay. By far, the best company I have worked for!

Cons

There was a time a few years ago I did worry about our culture, but not anymore. There were a few employees (unfortunately, not even technicians) who didn't have the best attitudes and were really bringing the company moral down but they have since left the company and we now have a hard working, inclusive, drama free workplace! Its fantastic!

Pros

Yearly bonus that's about it.

Cons

All managers like to micro manage they also will not listen to all the employees. Instead, they love to listen to only one senior tech who always have some stupid theory. Communication with management is bad. With the management team the way they are, our culture have gone down the drain. That is why every year they end up with a bad survey. If all the technicians didn't need their job, they would have quit a long time ago. Honestly the whole management team has got to go. When it comes to review I think none of the managers have a say in how we perform. There is no system in place to see who is over performing or under performing. Instead managers go with word of mouth from eachother.
