Pros

At the engineering level there are a lot of good, experienced people. People generally help each other out Remote/Hybrid work depending on manager Growing industry

Cons

Company is constantly reorganizing and changing directions. There is no way to be efficient when you know it’s just going to change in 6 months. Hiring too fast. Too many junior engineers, not enough experience. Executive team is hyper focused on growing and it will bite the company as it’s growing too fast. Executive is largely from outside the industry with little to no experience in material handling. Very troubling Dematic/KION is very bad at integrating the people and products of the companies they buy.
