Pros

The pay was good and the people I worked with were great!

Cons

The work/life balance really depends on the role that you get. If you're more tied to manufacturing/pilot plant, you're on call and have daily meetings (before 8 AM AND after 4 PM) making it hard to do anything Although we have flextime, it does bleed into personal life and it's hard to manage sometimes. The lab folks had pretty laid back schedules and workloads. The forced ranking system is archaic and causes a lot of distrust in management. Also management should not control your career prospects. It's a really toxic system. I've also seen a lot of microaggressions in the plant and racist comments by operators which made me feel unwelcome.
