Pros

Test and manufacturing is onsite with design. Chances to evaluate products and make them better

Cons

WAY too many to list. Pay is poor, they lowball all offers to see what sticks. Managers care about themselves only. Way short staffed (especially now), where we have to work 50 hour weeks to keep afloat. Management doesn't allow engineering to fix design problems because it will take longer. Design partners are complete and utterly useless, but forced to work with them.

Pros

Great experience to build your resume, mostly due to a lack of clear role definitions and being asked to do tasks outside of your scope of work. The engineering department is full of dedicated workers just trying to survive the whims of the Ariens children.

Cons

"Be Honest" - Upper management lies and intentionally misleads employees "Be Fair" - There are huge discrepancies in pay and responsibilities for the same job titles "Respect the individual" - Long hours and "unspoken expectations" make you feel like a number that's only as good as the amount of slop you can deliver "Encourage intellectual curiosity" - There was never anytime to try anything new or come up with multiple solutions let alone do anything innovative.
