Pros

Good people. great site and facilities. work life balance is AMAZING at this company.

Cons

Far away from many things, site is in the middle of no where. Not being able to drive will lead to long commutes. This company is becoming a shared service, they only pay scientists and engineers high salaries and don't bother increase peoples salaries fairly. No permanent positions, many contract based roles. Makes it difficult for people to stay hence the high turn over rates. Career opportunities are quite slim they will say there's a lot of opportunities with the mergers and acquisitions but I wouldn't trust any they say. They're just looking for people to do dirt work while higher ups get bonuses for saving the company money, but they can't be asked to increase salaries along side inflation ........

Pros

Great coworkers who truly care about putting best foot forward and great technology.

Cons

Compensation has not kept pace with inflation, making it difficult to feel rewarded despite strong performance. * Career progression lacks transparency. Advancement opportunities are limited, and there are no clearly defined milestones or timelines for promotion in some functions. * Organizational priorities and direction frequently change, making it difficult to execute long-term strategies. Communication from senior leadership can feel disconnected from the realities of frontline employees. * The company has become increasingly top-heavy, with decisions often taking a long time to reach the people responsible for execution. * Incentive structures have become less competitive over time, which has negatively affected motivation and retention
