Pros
Decent benefits and decent pay, and xometry swag is actually halfway decent. Lots of big ideas, but 1% only get traction. Ok Medical Bad dental Ok Vision Standard 3% match on 401k Stock options that only start taking effect after being here a year, and are in full vested after 4 years.
Cons
The Quality Management team presents as personable and approachable; however, the management approach is highly documentation-driven and often feels adversarial rather than supportive. Conversations are frequently documented in ways that do not fully align with how they were experienced by employees, which can erode trust. Concerns about workload have, at times, been met with Performance Improvement Plans framed as development opportunities. In practice, this can feel punitive and discouraging. Verbal feedback does not always align with subsequent written documentation, creating confusion around expectations and performance standing. Work/life balance is a serious concern. Extended workweeks of 60–80 hours are common, not exceptional. While candidates may be told there are natural ebbs and flows in workload, the reality is a consistently high-pressure environment with ongoing urgent priorities and limited relief. Overall, the expectations and pace may only be sustainable for those prepared to operate in a persistently high-stress environment with limited structural support.
