Pros

Bringing the best 3D desktop printers to the market is exciting! The team in Berlin has grown from 1 to 10 in 2015 and from 10 to 20 up until now. The Berlin team is therefore rather new and still in build-up phase. A lot of unique, clever, motivated people and the same counts for our colleagues in Boston. Fantastic manager in Berlin, who can motivate and help employees grow! Great extra's such as a pretty office in Prenzlauerberg, family lunch on Monday/Wednesday/Friday and nice team events. Hardworking, energetic atmosphere.

Cons

As a fast moving start-up, the communication between Boston and Berlin could be improved. Luckily Formlabs has an open feedback culture and these issues can and are discussed.

I Never Thought I'd Enjoy Work This Much

Pros

Whether it's the people, work, level of trust, or product, pretty much everything is awesome. I've worked at much larger companies and a smaller company, and never have I been so excited to come into work. We're constantly pushing the boundaries of 3D printing, and the growth of the company and market is awesome to watch. Everyone is incredibly educated, and even non-technical team members know more about 3D printing than most customers we work with. The company has a rich history and clear vision. There are no slow days. You have the freedom and support to continually improve yourself through classes, certifications, etc. I can't recommend working here enough. Also, dogs, side projects, a plethora of activities, and an arcade make the office a place you want to be. I never though i'd be waking up at 7 and heading into work early, but Formlabs has made work amazing.

Cons

The pay is what you'd expect from a startup, which is off putting for some people. Some people may view the expected work commitment as a negative. You're expected to work until you finish what you need to, and that occasionally means putting in more than 9 hours a day. If you don't like working, Formlabs isn't the place for you. If you have allergies to dogs, you may not be a fan of dogs in the office.
