Worst and toxic work environment

Senior mechanical project engineer
Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

The projects they work on are very interesting and it's stuff that's never been done before.

Cons

I got fired from here after 4 months of employment. Because the CEO thought I wasn't management material even though I had no people reporting directly to me. The work environment is super toxic and the CEO randomly comes behind your back when you are working and yells at you out for doing a bad design job while the design is still in process. There is a dog and pony show every 6 months or so to the Big Pharma companies who fund the company. A week before the presentation everyone is running around and spending money like crazy to get stuff done. They have been in business since the past 5-8 years and still have not produced a single product. It's a scam where they keep getting funding with no results and keep publishing senseless patents.

Company Not Forthcoming on Issues

Mechanical designer
Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Promising technology. Promising business approach.

Cons

In light of failing to attain company milestones in a given year, we were promised that no one would be punished. Then, I and several other engineers, lost our jobs with severance and were told, "this isn't a problem with your performance, we've just eliminated your role. We advise that you apply to our company should another role come up with which you have the skillset for." Two months later, my role reappeared in their active job listings. I applied. I haven't received an invitation for the interview.

The Pay is okay for what the industry is

Cons

The company as a whole is a mess and management and communication is the worst I've ever seen it.
