Pros

Colleagues are willing to help and impart knowledge.

Cons

Misaligned expectations, inability to learn the actual processes and training cut incredibly short. Little to no chance of learning from colleagues from other departments nor learning of the actual design thought processes used to design test hardware.

Pros

Great people Good work-life balance, on the production team at least Fairly competitive pay structure for advanced roles if compared with companies in the valley Reasonable performance expectations

Cons

Boneheaded senior management. Director level and below are down to earth and capable of executing, but senior management all brought in from other companies in the last year or two are determined to fail while having feel-good company-wide chats about inclusion instead of building a realistic roadmap. Pay is also very much NOT competitive for labor employees, or for advanced roles when compared with any company just 20 miles east or south.
