Still a great company, but lacking growth opportunity for staff.

Business Outlook

Pros

Very knowledgeable people who are great to work with.

Cons

Little to no staff development and growth opportunity. When Danaher took over, the basis -innovation in development of test & measurement technology - was reduced to driving incremental (technology) changes. Cutting cost is too dominant, leading to short-sighted decision making.

Great engineers, poor direction

Business Outlook

Pros

Smart people and very interesting problems. The physics of High frequency HW design is fascinating. Also, you will get to solve very complex Math problems with SW. Great experience with some great people.

Cons

Constant demand from parent company to reduce expenses. Very little investment in R&D with a yearly layoff. They also happen to target the layoff for the most experienced/expensive engineers. Good place to start but do not plan to stay for long.

Pros

Great campus, some good talent

Cons

Too rooted in the past. No innovation happening. Some people who had been successful in the past kind of dominate the company. There is no possible way they will update their software to modern world. The technology looks like crappy old software in the 90s.
