Pros

- Get to work with really smart people - Feel good about working on products that make a real difference in the world supporting scientists and engineers. - The cause of so much angst and grief has been removed. Finally!!! A little late, but so grateful there is karma in the world for all my friends and colleagues past and present who worked in the UX group. - Salary ranges are decent - Nice culture

Cons

WFH policy was never great Opportunities to grow depend on who you know, not your performance (true everywhere I suppose). Lack of transparency across the org. too old school.

Pros

- The best part so far is the "human element" of the workplace, i.e. the company culture. People actually seem to care about the success of their colleagues in addition to their own. And there's an annual office weekend retreat at a resort - all paid for, including a +1. - Helping people in the Aerospace & Defense Industry solve complex engineering/science problems using MATLAB and Simulink - Pay is quite competitive in my estimation, and there is a substantive quarterly bonus depending on company and individual performance during that quarter - Doesn't come with the nuisances of the red tape, bureaucracy, and security clearances necessary for typical aerospace & defense companies - The IT infrastructure is really solid and the e-tools are well documented - There is an organized and rigorous onboarding process with clear directions and milestones

Cons

- As an application engineer, managing your Outlook emails and Teams messages is a necessary but unfortunate time-suck that can easily take you away from doing the meaningful work you originally joined the company for - You have to log your time for each customer project you're supporting - an overall a minor nuisance but quite annoying nonetheless
