Pros

Paid well for co-op Engineering position. Rotation allowed exposure to several different areas. Experience in each area was considerably different and depended greatly on that specific manager.

Cons

Some rotation positions had little oversight, usually because they didn't have time. The company as a whole was understaffed and overworked, especially manufacturing engineers.

Pros

Stable company. Good leadership and development. The company is older school but actively working to become more adaptable. Very good CEO

Cons

Decision making is very long. Vertical structure creates a lot of busy work and informational meetings with upper management. This is frustrating but does hone your communication skills.

Pros

The work is exciting; Vast number of career opportunities; Great benefits; Big on community service and providing opportunities to become involved with the community; The company will cut costs in order to keep employees.

Cons

The downsides that come to mind are: 1) The company does not seem to adjust salary to match the cost of living when changing locations. 2) I can't speak for all of the company, but it doesn't seem too diverse (this is just based off of one out of the many locations that the company has).
