Pros

Get to work with some hi-tech products, opportunity to schedule own work within reason. Occasionally fun and if you have a brain you can learn a lot.

Cons

If you join Bruker don’t expect a pay rise anytime soon, regularly management say it’s been a tough year and each year we installed more than last. A scientist would describe the career opportunities at Bruker as “a non-event rest mass with a quantum probability of zero”. Management and customers expect you to behave like an electron and be in two places at the same time. There is unfair pressure on employee’s to get installations accepted by a date whatever the cost, leading to long hours for the employee and poorer quality. Trying to get parts is now a joke, we used to get parts with in 1 or 2 days now it can be weeks.

Pros

Having trouble finding any now. Maybe the new President can turn things around.

Cons

Since the major re-org by the President that quit half way through, this place has been going downhill. They have put $$$ above all else, including customer service.

Pros

Well designed products, interesting technology, talented employees

Cons

Failure to recognize employees as the most important resource, outsourcing is slowly replacing in-house design, engineers are becoming outsource managers. Engineering group is being moved to San Jose to save money?!
