Pros

ASC has lots of work and as a young engineer I'm given lots of responsibility. Instead of working on a small piece of a larger project, I get to design and manage entire millon-dollar projects. It's challenging. I've learned a lot in the couple years I've been here. The people are nice and other engineers are always helpful. Good culture. There are lots of social events that he company sponsors, including impromptu engineering game night. Pay and benefits are good.

Cons

The workload can be difficult at time, especially when you get multiple projects. I've seen other engineers who can't balance everything and they struggle. They have recently added a new manufacturing engineering department, so this should relieve some of the workload. Getting manpower on your jobs is difficult and this can cause your projects to be late.

Thanks for the review. I'm glad that you're being challenged and that you see that as a rewarding experience. We are continuing to add to our engineering staff in order to take on the recent orders, so hopefully we're able to reduce your workload a bit.

Pros

- Good pay and good raises (at least for me) - Lots of responsibility for a new engineer (my first real job) - Interesting and challenging projects (autoclaves and ovens) - Good co-workers. A fairly young group of engineers. - Use newest software (CFD, FEA, Inventor, Compress) - Friendly manager - Company is growing (they're hiring more engineers constantly)

Cons

- Bottleneck getting your drawings and calculations approved. - Can be stressful when deadlines are coming up. - Sometimes tough to get the shop to work on your project - Have to work with some difficult personalities in the shop - Often a time-crunch to get drawings out to the shop

Pros

The company is the largest autoclave manufacturer in the world. As a result, they are very busy and there is lots of engineering work. You're given lots of responsibility and use lots of design software, including Inventor, FluidFlow, ANSYS, and other analysis programs. You work with a good bunch of engineers, one engineering supervisor, and the chief engineer. You're expected to design and manage equipment projects independently, which allow you to learn a lot about the equipment. The pay is decent and the 401K plan has great matching (100% up to 6%).

Cons

Because they are very busy, many of the jobs are tight on schedule. The result is that engineering is behind and production is behind. This creates extra stress, especially if your project is late. They're trying like mad to hire more people, but we're told that it's difficult to find good shop and engineering people. Management has very high expectations of engineers. The president and owner gets involved in some major projects and he is very demanding - if you're on the wrong side of a situation, he can be abrasive. This is definitely not a low-stress job.
