Pros

Benefits are ok. Tuition reimbursement is pretty good

Cons

The union has way too many responsibilities that they cant handle but wont give up. Engineers are often just pushing paperwork and not actually doing engineering. Standards are terrible, resources provided are sub par, support is sub par, salary is sub par. Overall I would look elsewhere.

Pros

Strong learning environment with supportive team members and clear guidance from mentors. Great exposure to real-world supply chain and sustainability projects.

Cons

Limited ownership in some projects due to internship scope, but still a valuable learning experience overall.

Pros

- wfh - equipment provided - 2 raises a year

Cons

- very cliquey - OT is only 2 additional hours a day. nothing more - management prioritizes metrics over employees’ wellbeing - zero downtime in between calls. constantly back to back from beginning to end of shift - other depts do not hold their weight, which results in CSR’s having to do twice the work. can/will lead to burnout - union uwua local 1-2 does not advocate for members like they should. they are very cozy with con ed management. will be lackadaisical with member requests
