Pros

Good compensation, good work life balance. Fairly flexible and well organized, a lot of independence in how you approach your work. Pretty ideal job for self-motivated mid and late career professionals.

Cons

Management can be a little too hands off. Upper level employees often have remote work privileges, but lower level employees do not. Office pretty empty except for these non-remote employees which hurts company culture. Bonuses for past few years were not full.

Pros

Getting paid is great but having no time to do anything else but work is great for workaholics. I love it when IT pushes another Win 11 update that takes 30 minutes to load so I actually have time to use the restroom.

Cons

This place is a modern day sweat shop. Putting 14 hour days most days and weekends! The company is so cheap now they won’t buy boards to do our job and expect a 30% increase in productivity by using AI on top of 5% yearly workload increase. You do the compounding math. How about pumping up my pay that much at the beginning of the year and not 7 months behind. They pump out so many devices nobody can keep up and the quality of our products has gone way downhill. Too many meetings. I would rather be mopping floors or mowing grass to get my life back.
