Pros

Very cool members and exposure to interesting projects and startup ventures. Free classes and access to the workshop equipment.

Cons

Upper management so far removed from the day to day operations, they have no idea what can be accomplished in a set amount of time with the number of people performing blended roles (more than one job.) Constantly shifting priorities due to a reactionary culture. There is no real business plan so all one can do is respond to shiny object syndrome thinking this new initiative is gonna change the whole outlook and finally make it a profitable company. Toxic leadership that insinuates you should be grateful for being offered a pay cut.

Pros

Fun and energetic place to work. A lot of the staff is young and ambitious, making for a great environment. Many people willing to share their specific knowledge and help others grow. Upper management was always kind and easy to work with.

Cons

Really don't have much to say about any cons. I loved working here.

Pros

A great opportunity to learn new skills, access tools, and meet many interesting people working on a variety of projects and companies

Cons

Extremely sexist, elitist, and downright unfair and illegal management practices. Gaslighting to the extreme by management, who did not take employee concerns seriously. Should be such an amazing place to work, but is ultimately disappointing and soul-sucking and will leave you psychologically affected for many years after you leave...
