Pros

I learned how to use advanced high-end test equipments for testing.

Cons

Instead of designing and developing products through my PhD expertise as a R&D engineer should have contributed to the company, my main daily job is testing modules like a operator assigned directly by the manager. I tested the same modules for several months or a year more , and no one cares. Work over-time is very often and not paid.
