Great Experience at NovaTech's Orion Office (Lenexa, KS)

Senior systems engineer
Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Specifically to Systems Engineering: Friendly, small company environment Effective leadership within systems engineering group Work is not mundane and new challenges arise every day Produce a really cool technology product, on the cutting edge in its niche Pay is competitive, 401K and health benefits are OK, profit sharing package is nice You are not required to become a manager if you want to remain in design engineering The work life balance is very gracious -- a desire to minimize travel is respected Generally: Small company feel, proud of the product being developed. Orion division (in Kansas) is the most profitable NovaTech division Coworkers can be trusted

Cons

This is an engineering company first, and there are no two ways around it. Manufacturing and production technicians are not treated (by their managers) with the same respect as the engineers. The technicians are grossly undervalued and are not given much opportunity to advance (or move laterally into a different role in the company). The hardware engineering group is having some growing pains, and I have even seen a good engineer leave because one of the long-time (soon to retire) engineers would not share any work. A couple of the long time employees do not act professionally toward others.

Stable Job

Field applications engineer

CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Management is flexible, they will work with you on the occasional scheduling conflict as well as other issues that might come up. It is a comfortable work environment, in which you are given ample time to complete projects at a comfortable page and high level of quality. Employees in a technical role will gain a great level of experience in the field of distributed control systems.

Cons

Working from a satellite location, there is little room for career advancement within the company, especially without relocation to a main office.
