Pros

Corporate culture at Mainspring is very open where everybody is working together towards the company goals. It is refreshing to be in a place where there is very little politics involved in the company decision making. Lots of supportive and smart people at the company all the way from last hire to the founders who are all with the company. The product is great and is taking us closer to the clean energy goal.

Cons

The company has grown a lot over the last year and it has been challenging to maintain the corporate culture, especially in COVID times. Looking forward for more people return to the office.

Pros

Lots of overtime Free snacks

Cons

Technicians are rewarded for working efficiently with additional work assignments. "Senior" technicians do the same work as entry level techs, while getting paid twice as much. Last minute travel with many adhoc extensions, sometimes keeping you away from home for multiple weeks Unfair and dishonest supervisors who will quickly throw you under the bus for a pat on the back Unsafe practices in the field Inflexible work hours and schedule This is the type of job where you are expected to be working 100% of the time, even if you complete your assigned job duties. You will be pawned off to another department for the day to ensure you don't get a break. Last time I checked, running a computer at full capacity will cause components to heat up and burn out, resulting in an unsustainable system. The same goes for humans working in a business.
