"That meeting could have been an email." If I had a nickel for every time I heard that. Sometimes, there can indeed be too many meetings, but we all work together to make sure they're necessary and worthwhile - and if they're not, to find better ways to communicate or get needed info. We love to hear supportive and caring people surround you - that's the Veeco United I know. Thanks for making a material difference during your time at Veeco! Best, Brenden Wright VP, HR Operations

Pros

-Hiring seems egalitarian -The pay was fairly good -Occasional company lunches

Cons

-An endless parade of wasteful daily 30-minute meetings... two per day for some people -Very early hours are the norm; most employees start at 6:00-8:00 AM -The workforce is largely dull suburbanites, with 7-8 males for every female -The office has its fair share of unpleasant bully types. Rigid thinking and low education seem common as well. I suspect this is because Veeco has a big military recruitment program, and ever since it bought Ultratech (of San Jose, CA) back in 2017, MAGA types have become more common. It's probably no coincidence how in recent years, the San Jose branch's Glassdoor score has sunk down to near Veeco's national average.
