Kneepads are recommended. - Recensione dipendente - Bring Kneepads and Lube! presso Optech (Canada)

The engineering work is very interesting and challenging, and I looked forward to going to work every day. There was relatively little overlap in technical skills among my co-workers, so everyone works together to get things done. Everyone is friendly, easy to get along with, and communicates well among each other.

Business conditions are always tenuous, resulting in cyclical hiring and layoffs depending on the cash flow within the company.

Highly dynamic working environment with lots of product development initiatives going on. You tend to work on different application areas with different markets. Gives good exposure to different industries, commercial/space/defense.

Compensation lower than industry standard. Need to increase the compensation for engineering staff to levels as surveyed by OSPE/PEO for them to retain their talent.
