Business outlook
Pros
- A lot of room for engineers to flex creativity - Challenged to optimize solutions - Relatively easy engineering wise. There's not a ton of hard math or intense computer simulations. Practical skill and design for manufacturability is key. - Some non-engineering tasks are fun - Relatively laid back and mistakes are expected as long as you learn from them. - You will have a lot of freedom to take the reigns on your projects
Cons
- Low pay and undesirable area - BRAIN DRAIN: Institutional knowledge has gone and newcomers will be doomed to make the same mistakes their predecessors did. - Corporate often treats you like second class employees - Senior staff does not appear to have a long term plan for plant improvements.
