Vantaggi

The pay exceeds most companies. Free medical, dental, and vision. Company paid pension and 100% tuition reimbursement. Discounts on tickets. Year end bonus

Svantaggi

Spent 5 years to build my career only to leave and come to McMaster Carr and be lied to about the position. It turns out that a Warehouse specialist is just a glorified picker. Yes, I said an order picker. If you didn't graduate from an Ivy League school your pretty much a bottom feeder in their eyes. There is no career growth. Managers and supervisors quit at least every 6 months.

Vantaggi

- Pay/benefits are incredibly generous - People are generally easy/nice to work with - Note that the Systems department seems to be fairly isolated from the negative issues discussed in other reviews (e.g. tension between warehouse workers and management) - I haven't experienced any of those issues within the systems department. In my opinion, Systems is a great place to work and develop as an engineer. - Hybrid work style (3 days in office). Personally, I like hybrid more than both fully in-office and fully remote styles. - Great cafeteria with good food and cheap prices. - Good work/life balance (outside of being on call, I can leave work at work).

Svantaggi

- Work is not super interesting to me. I come from a highly technical, but very different (not ecommerce/industrial supplies), background where I was doing work I was much more interested in. No doubt there are folks in Systems who love the domain though. - While I'm not on call a ton (1-2 weeks every few months), I really hate being on call. I like to leave work at work. Note that joining at least one reliability team is expected within your first year or so.
