Pros

Interesting product - high power RF generators used in silicon manufacturing.

Cons

Engineering team is being poorly managed. Workload is huge, Engineering dept. understaffed, equipment needed to do your work is not available for weeks or months. Older, established Engineers unwilling to help newcomers for whatever reason (job security, office politics?). Management afraid to discipline them for fear they will leave. Management does not understand need to phase out problematic employees (or at least have backups for them so they can enforce rules on them).
