disorganized, no work process or storage stucture, no proper resources, lacking some functional roles which make others work difficult or create work which has no value for engineer career, heavily dependent on vendors and detail or thrid party engineerin, it seems that they dont have vision and priority organized.

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

exposure to a lot of new products and industries with no shortage of things to work on, improvements to make, and product lines to explore

Cons

growing pains associated with taking on so much new business, integrating with other companies we've acquired, and sometimes an older "startup" culture that prevents the necessary adjustments made for industrial applications (cost of industrial equipment, reliability of components, total cost of ownership)
