Pros

Not any positives about this company

Cons

They allow other employees to micromanage and if you call them out on it then you are black listed. Training isn't the greatest but they were improving it. They throw you into the work and you either sink or swim. They say they offer flexible schedules but don't!

Pros

Genuinely care about their employees and most everyone is very nice and enjoyable to work with. The structure of the company is great if you enjoy working in small groups. Good opportunities and chance for more responsibilities that are based on skill rather than simply basing off seniority. Most of the people in leadership are deserving and competent.

Cons

Compensation isn't as high in comparison to other engineering firms. Bonus system is flawed and rewards less profitable teams equal compensation as a more profitable team. Often working around 50 hrs a week.
