We're truly grateful for your commitment to Benchmark over the past six-plus years and for sharing your perspectives as a Mechanical Engineer in our Rochester location. It's encouraging to hear that you appreciate the regularity of our compensation, the intellectual challenges, opportunities for skill development, community involvement, and the work-life balance we strive to maintain. Knowing that our employees feel a strong sense of identity and understand the world better through their work is deeply rewarding for us. Your candid feedback on the potential for work-related stress, lack of project selection, and the risk of boredom is equally important. We recognize that these are critical areas affecting employee satisfaction and engagement. Please rest assured that we are continuously working to provide our team with stimulating projects and minimize stress, including offering support and resources for stress management. The ability to choose projects can vary depending on several factors, including business needs and team dynamics. However, we value the importance of professional growth and job satisfaction and will take your feedback into account as we seek to improve our project allocation processes. As we move forward, we will look for more ways to keep our work engaging and to enhance our employees' ability to shape their career paths within the company.

Pros

Floor production staff is awesome; office staff not so much. Average blah company.

Cons

Managers are poorly trained. Cheap salaries. Very poor work culture- ignores holidays, employee picnic/ get-togethers. Burdensome non-value work.

Pros

Met some good people while there that are still friends.

Cons

Extremely difficult to suggest changes and being taken seriously. Benchmark is stuck on its hiring process. Where a piece of paper is worth more than experience.
