Vantaggi

somewhat nice office spaces. ME team is very nice - good people. Plenty of sustaining engineering projects (if that's what you're after) & plenty of CAPA work.

Svantaggi

Severe lack of leadership. Although ME team is great/talented, company has not figured out how to place an ME manager of proper qualifications and mindset. There is also lack of mentorship, due to lack of truly experienced MEs in the team. and those that have significant experience are swamped with work (or don't care to mentor). Also, company is starting to outsource new product dev to consultants or abroad. That why this is not a good place to work at if you are looking for new product development and design work.

Vantaggi

- Easy commute if you live north of Seattle/Bellevue - Decent cafeteria - Decent compensation

Svantaggi

- The level of apathy amongst colleagues is off the charts. Many people are simply coasting and collecting a paycheck. When you try to be a team player and pick up the slack, you simply become a target for blame. - Due to the extremely lax "return to office" policy, the office often feels quite empty when there is plenty of work to be done. Being onsite M-F often leads to more work with little support. - There is a culture of public shaming, with several meetings every week dedicated to project leads targeting individuals to make up for their own lack of technical understanding.
