Pros

Challenging work, great people, excellent benefits. Ability to move easily throughout the company and between business units was wonderful. Worked with some very intelligent and talented engineers. Genuine interest in and attention to the customer bottom line.

Cons

Offices is a cube farm! And many of the labs are cramped. No ability to grow and build customers. The company has endured many transitions over the 10+ years I have worked there, yet senior management seems to deteriorate each time. Fortunately the worker bees are amazing! I was impressed with Dr. Straeter (Head of the GDE San Diego division) who walked the halls and spoke to staff with genuine interest in what they were doing. After he left it was a successive downturn in quality of mgmt.

Pros

My pros are my manager and team coworkers. Outside of that not really a fan. I do well at what I do.

Cons

Honestly, ever since new management has come for the upper VPs and directors, a lot has shifted for the negative. Feels very micromanaging when we were told we were doing fine at home and there was no reason to have us come back in the office. Now suddenly we’re being forced back to the office. Other departments and I don’t really get along because there’s a bunch of petty people just trying to get others in trouble and all I’m doing is trying to do my job. Where I am at, everyone just talks all day and then complains about how much work they have.
