Unethical Practices

Pros

Health insurance, competitive pay, not much else.

Cons

Unethical engineering practices run rampant. People commuting fraud against their clients is normalized. Others comfortable ignoring quality practices. Gas lighting is a normal characteristic. I've never worked for such an unethical company. Issues are ignored by HR.

The types and scale of projects should be challenging to a motivated engineer.

MM appears to be going through a period of downsizing or a realignment of priorities.

Pros

Easy commute from my home and nice offices

Cons

Being trained by a very harsh, impatient, angry critical boss. Being belittled and yelled at. And then HR doing nothing to correct the situation after I told them and provided proof.
