Pros

At the engineering level there are a lot of good, experienced people. People generally help each other out Remote/Hybrid work depending on manager Growing industry

Cons

Company is constantly reorganizing and changing directions. There is no way to be efficient when you know it’s just going to change in 6 months. Hiring too fast. Too many junior engineers, not enough experience. Executive team is hyper focused on growing and it will bite the company as it’s growing too fast. Executive is largely from outside the industry with little to no experience in material handling. Very troubling Dematic/KION is very bad at integrating the people and products of the companies they buy.

Pros

Great pay, Good autonomy. Exciting technology. Lots of opportunity to improve and license to make changes, the Grand Rapids office has many great people who built Rapistan who are the best part of working there.

Cons

Ruled by the quarterly results, little transparency in outcomes, little care for individuals, many instances of people being fired or promoted unfairly, lots of politics, constantly trying to look better than they are, No real values to speak of. Pray you have a good manager, they are unlikely to be held accountable
