Benefits and work-life balance can't offset toxic culture

Engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Benefits and work life balance are just good enough to reel you in.

Cons

-Goleta site is the worst. Never seen such a poorly run site. -High turnover -So much waste. Time and money spent doing some of the most ridiculous tasks. -Takes forever to do some of the most basic things. -Keep doing what has never worked well is the mindset. Reluctant to change and optimization. -Blind leading the blind. -Trying to do more manufacturing but are obvious to resources and processes needed. Failing miserably. -Program managers who use to be engineers and should not be PMs since they can't let the technical side go. -Unfair promotion approval. Given out if say you are leaving but not to those who have been in role performing. -Management not hiring right resources with needed experience and skills. -Toxic and boring work environment -Outdated bathrooms from the 70's
