Pros
- very smart and driven group of top-notch engineers and managers - silicon photonics and LiDAR technology is leading edge, a cool semiconductor tech company many have not heard of - office is high end with an advanced lab in the Boston seaport area - compensation is in line with the industry, hard work and achievement is rewarded with out of cycle promotions and increased comp - a growing and profitable business, which is unique for a small tech company
Cons
- on-site work is expected (some employees like that, some don't) - the engineering team is lean but growing, so the work can be demanding due to contract milestones so you need to be ready to step up and perform - a small company and you may need to wear many hats to get the job done, may not be a good fit for some
