Symbotic System Engineer reviews

Most skills are non transferable as you're essentially troubleshooting small electrical and mechanical issues. You almost feel like more of a tech than an engineer

-Poor people management and managers -Almost to none inventory on basic parts used in manufacturing, automation, & robotics; or and most likely, very bad at basic inventory management -Customer sites ops & management hate your guts, as your presence undermines them -poor use of technology for automated system (there does not need a motor/vfd at every length of conveyor: a literal maintenance nightmare) -poorly implemented code and choice of PLCs (the cult of Rockwell) - poorly thought out structures and with no safe or feasible way to fix them (most people are not monkeys, most people use lifts or ladders, which would be safer) -as/rs system that does not work (if lifts need to be calibrated every day, if not every hour, something is wrong, that is creating unnecessary busy work) -charging system uses outdated and/or poorly rated equipment (a simple Google or industry search would inform...) (Osha and most state department of labor would have a field day writing up violations) -no clue to what NEC if not OSHA dictate -do not use proper locks for loto (metal locks with electricity...hmm) -no one wears safety glasses, boots, gloves, nor proper clothing (shorts and t-shirts as well as polos do not belong in factories) -definitely ageist (customer was also racist if not misogynist in some cases) -intimidated easily (or at least my management were) -label printers (but industrial printers never work anywhere, ever)
