Pros

Great people to work with, take their job seriously, laid back atmosphere and dress code(people show up to work in flip flops and shorts) walking distance to all restaurants downtown on elm st In Manchester. Decent hours, 8-4:30

Cons

Contractors are segregated and left out of a lot of activities within the company. Pay is nationally under what everyone else is making... like 20-30% less. So they get their year and get out. There is no benefits for contractors at all.

Pros

You will get to work with brilliant engineers across all disciplines. DEKA will expect you to put in the effort, but will also give you the opportunity to learn, grow, develop industry skills, and use them to improve the quality of life of thousands of people. As a 20 year veteran, you will rest well every night, knowing your work is going to help humanity.

Cons

Nothing in particular. Sometimes remote access is a bit flaky.

Pros

There is a culture of sharing and helping. Flat structure means everyone has a say. Plenty of projects and opportunities. Project dependent, but for the most part a fairly laid back culture.

Cons

Expect about 40% less than market average. They have difficulty keeping the people that are worth it. Year 0 and year 30 at the company have the same benefits, PTO, and bonus. No maternal/paternal benefits. General disbelief that any product will ever hit market or achieve internal milestones.
