Business Outlook

Pros

-Flexible Schedule for Co-Ops, large number of Co-Op conversions to full-time -Large fortune 500 company, but feels local -Very good entry into automotive, especially metal forging & machining, small assemblies as well -Managers will back their engineers when under the gun from management -High level of skill development in the manufacturing space

Cons

-Minimal guidance from management, must be a self-starter and ask questions to be successful -Project scopes & goals weren't always clear and many engineers & managers didn't have time to develop Co-Op skills -Pushed to work more hours, can be overwhelming when classes are taken concurrently
