Pros

Great experience builder. Great resume builder. You will learn a lot. Great pay(see cons)

Cons

Terrible management. It is obvious none of them have ever been in manufacturing long. Not open to suggestions. HR is the worst. Unethical and discriminatory. Will use personal beliefs and feelings to push political agendas. Obviously out to protect the company's interests while stepping on employees.

Pros

Good working environment Exciting projects Great coworkers (for the most part, like any place)

Cons

Like any maturing company, it has become more and more top-heavy, placing more and more emphasis on project management and milestones, sometimes over bread-and-butter engineering. I could have half the PMs I have now and do a better job
