toxic overly masculine, militaristic culture. Year 1: we love you Year 2: we love you but Year 3: you are sucking, and btw no raise Year 4: you do everything wrong, and btw no raise Year 5: you better get obsessed with growth, or you just might be laid off someday

Pros

Good benefits. Company enables me to make project implementation decisions and likewise expects results.

Cons

Company is quick to not stand behind you when suppliers complain. You are at fault until proven innocent. HR in processing takes f o r e v e r.

Pros

Good 401k matching & work life balance. 9/80 schedule means every other Friday off. Interesting work if you seek it.

Cons

Slow paced. A lot of old processes (with at times too many handoffs and paperwork) still in place. If you don't seek interesting work (i.e. stretch projects), young engineers may be stuck with paperwork.
