Pros

Flexible hours, and an nice bonus for the Eagan facility is the gym that is on campus. One of the cheapest gyms that you can become a member with--and with classes!

Cons

Sexual harassment and misogynistic culture in the RD&E facility are a major problem, and I have rarely seen anything done to stop it. This is even after people have told management and/or HR. It's almost as if they willingly want to ignore it.

Pros

The actual coworkers and team members are great. Everyone is super supportive and just trying to help each other out.

Cons

Management: There’s a huge disconnect between upper leadership and the people doing the day-to-day work. Goals and priorities change constantly with very little communication, and it often feels like micromanagement takes the place of actual guidance. Work-Life Balance: The workload is completely unsustainable. You’re expected to handle an overwhelming amount of work, but you aren't given the resources or staffing to actually get it done without burning out. Expecting people to constantly work over their hours has become the norm. Lack of Growth: Career progression is pretty much non-existent. Promises of promotions or career development are thrown around, but they rarely actually happen. There’s no clear pathway to move up, so it’s easy to feel stuck and stagnant.
