Pros

I foresee this company growing nicely in the future. The people that i've had the pleasure to work with work very hard and care a great deal about customers internally and externally. Here is a true opportunity for a new engineer to do some real design work and grow skills. Right out of college this place gave me my foot in the door. The projects are interesting, ambitious and fast paced.

Cons

While it is true that Aries is growing and changing for the better, they still have a hard time retaining employees. Project planning is also NOT among Aries' advantages. Sales has in the past sold new products that haven't finished the design process creating an enourmous amount of pressure on engineering to push a given project through the system. This encourages short cuts, scope creep, design flaws, unhappy customers, and unhappy employees.

Pros

Aries listens to new ideas and constantly shows appreciation for employees and gives back. The bonus program is great and a few of my colleagues have gotten promoted internally. I like the games we play on the front lawn in the summer, nice to get away from the work stuff.

Cons

The health insurance deductible is $5000 but Aries pays $2500 of it if I do the HRA. Not a bad trade off.
