Pros

- Ideal environment for self-motivated people who want to learn everything from technical aspects of lasers/3D printing to how to grow a sharp engineer's mindset - Many projects to choose from - A lot of benefits included - Respectable rewards - Very good pay raises and promotions if deadlines are met/you work hard - Boss seems to respect a good work ethic much more than some other tech company managers I've had

Cons

I was surprised to see that there are so many bad reviews here... Though sometimes Boss can be a bit harsh, it is understandable since this field requires high-precision and accuracy. When I took his words for face value, I also did improve a lot in the process. At least I felt that Boss does not have biases towards anyone and assessed people fairly (more result-driven). Overtime is not a frequent occurrence, but overtime is regular for any tech company. I thought it was reasonable here.

Pros

Everyone is tortured by management so there's common ground among all of the workers ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

Cons

The guy in charge is disrespectful, a liar, he lacks emotional intelligence, he won't listen to reason at all, and he expects the world from you while giving you scraps like the overtime. He micromanages everything, poorly, and gives off micro-energy. Unprofessional is an understatement. Outside of the poor management, there's no HR department, poor benefits coverage, and no promotions to work towards. This place is a dead end. Stay as far away as possible from here.
