Pros

good pay and insurance benefits no weekends not micro managed

Cons

hearing aids had the newest tech but were low quality and break more than any other hearing aids I ever worked with which leads to a-lot of unhappy customers.(this is well documented do your own research online).They where selling aids that they knew had bad charging systems that quit charging 6 months to a year after they are purchased.Instead of pulling aids in a recall and fixing they continued to sell to customers.They pretend to be American made but really they are made overseas and assembled in the US.

Pros

Decent pay, good work culture and colleagues, interesting technical work, great engineering equipment. The company/management has always been super accommodating. Good rapport with manager and project lead. Work at an IC level is definitely recognized more than most other companies I have worked for, especially when one is motivated and takes initiative. Company is also very fiscally disciplined and maintains strict budgets. This is definitely the best job I’ve had in the last 10 years.

Cons

Work may feel unstructured sometimes but not uncommon with R&D roles
