Pros

- Working with an international team. - Work directly with the equipment you design. - Coworkers are generally friendly people. - Workload is fair. At the Design Engineer level, you never have to take your work home with you.

Cons

- No opportunities for growth or advancement. I have seen two promotions in the 3 years I have been there across all of engineering and that was due to higher positions becoming vacant. - Bad management, structured training is almost non-existant. Work expectations and priorities seem to vary daily. Feedback is rarely consistent.
