Pros

Minimal office politics, shared vision of pursuing quality and continual improvement

Cons

Long, unpredictable hours, slow advancement, high burnout and turnover. Don't join here, you'll regret it. All the successful folks leave for better options after a few years.

Pros

Teammates believe in helping each other out. Even to a new person, respectable treatment is encouraged. Active steps are being taken to reduce attrition/breakout. Good options to switch teams and move around within the company. Good technical challenges and focus on materials innovation, research. Strong ethics and values of team members and the company in general.

Cons

No work life balance. In escalations and late-night meetings with teams in Asia all the time. No clear/lack of effective management - manager doesn't help prioritize tasks, everything is urgent all the time. Miniscule pay for the number of work hours put in. Removed the gym that was on campus to make more space for employee desks - shows the focus on work and no life. too many meetings with too many people - wastes too many manhours. Working late is the norm because all days goes in useless meetings.
