Pros
This company uses interesting technologies. They design and manufacture several of their own sensors in addition to creating sensors through integration. The people are very friendly. I have made several great friends over the course of my employ. This company prides itself on delivering high quality products. If there is an issue with a product, they react quickly to correct it. This is why YSI has been one of the top companies in the life sciences, and water quality sectors. They are niche markets and the company focuses on keeping its customers happy.
Cons
In my opinion, I was not provided the correct tools to do my job. The tools I were given were very old. My computer freezes often and is quite slow. I believe it is difficult to design products that meet YSI's high quality standards with such dated equipment. The management of this company favors micromanagement. My boss would routinely stand over my shoulder dictating exactly how a task should be performed. Some individuals may like this approach, I did not.
