Pros

Health benefits Company vehicle - minivan Opportunity to develop relationships with other engineers outside of your discipline Opportunity to travel - although its a requirement.

Cons

No accountability measures for senior leadership Very much a dictatorship environment - comply or die mentality Extremely high turnover (almost entirely non-management) - new engineers come and go Poor reputation amongst other engineering peers throughout the industry Requirements to travel outside your home state because of being short staffed (high turnover) Donan requires everyone to sign an employment agreement for specified time and mileage restrictions if you leave

Pros

Initial interview went well. Good follow up and reminders from initial recruiter.

Cons

Will be putting this review on Alpine Intel as well because this is one of those companies who rebranded instead of making substantive changes to a flawed business model.
