Pros

Theme park projects are cool

Cons

Truthfully, this is the worst place I've ever worked. The culture is toxic. The pay is very low. Management takes advantage of inexperienced engineers, works them as if they're senior engineers, and makes them complete projects in less than half the time that it would take for a senior engineer to complete them. There's insane overtime with no overtime pay, all under the guise of doing what it takes to get the job done. Projects are always understaffed and extremely disorganized. Due dates and deadlines are routinely moved up by weeks or months for no obvious reason, leaving you scrambling. The engineering ethics are questionable at best with brand new engineers designing safety critical components without any oversight from more senior engineers. If you do ask any senior engineers or management a question you're told that you're being disrespectful of their time by not figuring it out yourself. The management is volatile and erratic. They micro manage you to oblivion. They'll publicly ridicule you in front of the customer for something that's their fault in order to save face. They will say one thing one day, turn around the next day, and yell at you for doing what they said yesterday while insisting that they said something completely different. It was very common to hear yelling and screaming from management during all hours of the workday. The employees were constantly on edge never knowing if they were the next target. The hierarchy of management is whoever literally screams the loudest. Don't even try to take PTO or go to a doctor's appointment without being lambasted for it. People usually last about a year here before going to much greener pastures with less stress and more pay. The high turnover rate speaks for itself.

Pros

Good benefits, nice office and location, monthly birthday celebrations, management is easy to talk to about any issues you may be facing both at work and personal. Hybrid-Remote and Flex schedule opportunity is available for most after 90 days. Great stepping stone from collage to career.

Cons

There were some social gatherings but would have liked to see more team building events or field site visits on projects being worked on. Would have liked to seen more investment in continued education for the position being filled and better EOY bonuses.

Pros

A few good employees are carrying the company.

Cons

Employee churn rate is high. I've seen many good full-time employees leave because the workplace is toxic. Avoid this company if you are looking for employment sponsorship; it's not worth your time.
