Pros

Majority of the people at this company were Asian, mostly Vietnamese - nice people and friendly environment. Holiday bonus and year-end bonus for employees who met and exceeded the expectations were generous, and it was not just for top management, which was definitely a plus, because I know at some companies only exempt/salary employees receive bonus, but not the hourly employees. Applied Engineering was definitely better on this part. Employee appreciation were also expressed through seasonal BBQ party and summer picnic when the business was doing well. The company is a private/family owned business, and you can definitely feel that atmosphere.

Cons

Micro-management restrained employees' innovation and motivation and added unnecessary stress at work.

Pros

Not many, pay is decent but this is not a great place to work

Cons

Extremely chaotic, priorities change mutlitple times daily. Regular layoffs, there were rounds of layoffs pretty much every year that I worked there. The company is not doing well financially, current employees have been on furlough since June of 2025 and more layoffs are expected.
