Pros

If you're early in your career, the sheer amount of responsibility you have makes this job rewarding, granted there is someone with more experience to guide you. You will learn a lot, mostly on your own, but it will be beneficial to your career growth. You will be able to try your hand in a lot of things while working here.

Cons

If you are either impatient or at a later stage in your career, just stay away. Documentation is as accessible as a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow. Warehouse and workstation organization is as real as Zeus throwing lightning bolts atop Mt. Olympus. Politics that stem from distaste between production and engineering are as guaranteed as death and taxes. The company is run by a bunch of investors, so naturally all they care about is positive cash flow. Expect them to find workarounds that will never be approved on a real company. Expect a 3% raise when you get promoted to a new position with more responsibility. Expect a lot of NPC workers since they are consistently pushed to get ship a product before it has been built. Oh, and make sure you sign up for Easter Egg Hunts to practice looking for things because you will be doing that A LOT. No one knows where anything is, and when you do ask people who should know, they just shrug and laugh. Remember the one pro I talked about? Yeah, no one is here to guide you as an engineer because everyone either got fired (mostly), or left for better opportunities. They even fired one very talented and experienced engineer in favor of another talented engineer because he couldn't ship out a certain product in time. Turns out, the replacement engineer couldn't get it out either and leaves in less than a year. Now the project is scrapped. Talk about unbelievable employee management.

Pros

The people there are not political and there's no brown-nosing or judging. I come in and do my best. I leave feeling like I did something good today. I'm only a contract employee, but seeing how the perm people act and react is refreshing. I'm glad there are still good companies that care about people.

Cons

My only con is I'm a contract employee. So I don't get the benefits that others get.

Pros

I've really enjoyed my time at this company. The work environment is positive and comfortable, and the people are truly some of the best I've worked with-friendly, supportive, and collaborative. Management is approachable and open to feedback, which creates a great team culture. My experience with work-life balance has been positive, especially with management being understanding and accommodating during challenging personal circumstances.

Cons

The company's continuous growth and efforts to streamline systems can sometimes make workloads feel overwhelming for some employees.
