Pros

Teamwork focused, collaboration,and continuous and quality improvement.

Does not utilize currently workers talents by denying internal hiring for a lateral poaition. Instead would rather a new person to fulfill the role.

Thanks for sharing your feedback about Veeco. I'm pumped to see you highlight teamwork, collaboration, and continuous improvement. Not so pumped to see the perspective on internal hiring. This is certainly something we support. Have you spoken to your manager or HR Partner? Or, you could reach out to me directly at bwright@veeco.com. I'd welcome the opportunity to hear more if that's an option for you. Thanks again for making a material difference at Veeco. Brenden

Pros

-Hiring seems egalitarian -The pay was fairly good -Occasional company lunches

Cons

-An endless parade of wasteful daily 30-minute meetings... two per day for some people -Very early hours are the norm; most employees start at 6:00-8:00 AM -The workforce is largely dull suburbanites, with 7-8 males for every female -The office has its fair share of unpleasant bully types. Rigid thinking and low education seem common as well. I suspect this is because Veeco has a big military recruitment program, and ever since it bought Ultratech (of San Jose, CA) back in 2017, MAGA types have become more common. It's probably no coincidence how in recent years, the San Jose branch's Glassdoor score has sunk down to near Veeco's national average.
