Pros

Always a lot of exciting projects happening and different ways to get engaged and learn more. Freedom to work outside your scope and have impact.

Cons

Environment can be toxic and all-consuming. Work is intense, long hours are common, you are sometimes treated disrespectfully, are seen as just a number, and compensation is lower than most other Bay Area companies.

Pros

Great exposure to the in's and outs of a car factory

Cons

Senior management doesn't do much, and their incompetence is buffered by assistant management that is usually a cousin with an associates degree in business hired even though there are team leaders who can operate all machines blindfolded and never get the opportunity to move upwards.

Pros

All the engineers that I worked with were great people and incredibly intelligent. The problems were challenging and I learned a ton while I was there.

Cons

The priorities shifted around every couple of weeks and I felt that the management expected us to keep to all the priorities. Management was very passive aggressive and would ridicule poor work instead of providing constructive feedback. Very poor work-life balance.
