Pros

n LIGHT has a lot of smart people, had the potential for interesting work.

Cons

I started thinking I could maybe retire from nLIGHT. Quickly learned that all the managers are engineers with poor management experience. They hired me because of outside/ different experience. I was lauded for a few unique contributions/ way of developing…. Only to be reprimanded for not doing the things the way they do.. There is no broad picture, just focused on the monitors, to their determinant.
