Job experience - Senior Power Electronics Engineer AC Propulsion Employee Review

Experienced Engineering Management Employees are valued and empowered to achieve results Well equipped facilities Excellent location

Overseas manufacturing coordination is challenging at times.

Small company, so everyone knew everyone. Was able to gain experience in just about every facet of the business. Smart engineers.

Management was somewhere between a puzzle and non-existent. No clear direction. No overall plan. They really didn't like customers - too much trouble, asked too many questions, huge pain. They had a "no-raise policy" they only told you about after your first review - you're supposed to work for the bonus...which is entirely out of your control. The China side of the business could - repeat, could - be an absolute gold mine but instead was operated as a living cartoon. They grant options for company stock as a way of compensation - options which will likely never be above water; the way they value the company is based on very (deliberately) inaccurate accounting, which means they can readjust the value at will to keep the options worthless.
