Pros

- Dedication for a safe working environment. PPE is provided, including ESD compliant shoes - Good opportunity for growth in the company

Cons

- Parking situation onsite is terrible. There's never enough parking to go around nearby the buildings, so you may end up taking a long walk in between buildings. As they increase the staff, parking becomes even more competitive. Management hasn't considered accommodation for current and new employees - Incredibly strict time-policy where points/half points are added to your attendance record, even if you're a minute late past your expected clock in time. Recently, this policy changed the accumulated points needed before there was disciplinary action taken from 8 to 5 - Lunch is only 30 minutes. Some sites lack access to fast and convenient food, either onsite or off campus, and there's only a small mini-fridge available to fit over 200 people's packed lunches No yearly raises - your pay is determined by your role in the company - Bonuses haven't been given out in the past two years - We aren't compensated for gas and milage used to travel between sites - At high work volumes, longer hours and mandatory overtime is expected

Pros

Great coworkers and talented engineers who genuinely support one another. Opportunity to work on impactful projects and solve real business problems. Exposure to modern BI and data technologies. Strong team members who are willing to go above and beyond to deliver results. Good learning opportunities for self-motivated individuals.

Cons

Leadership and management style can create unnecessary stress and turnover risk. Frequent micromanagement and excessive focus on responsiveness rather than outcomes. High meeting volume reduces time available for focused engineering work. Priorities and stakeholder commitments are sometimes established before consulting the engineers responsible for delivery. Limited trust in experienced employees and their ability to manage their own work. Internal growth and mobility can feel restricted. Work-life balance can be impacted by shifting priorities and urgent requests. Lack of recognition or compensation alignment when additional onsite expectations or workload demands are introduced. Having a non-technical BI manager overseeing technical engineering work can sometimes result in unrealistic timelines, misunderstandings of development complexity, and decisions being made without sufficient technical input.
