Pros

A Paycheck, little else comes to mind.

Cons

Plenty. You would most likely work for the micromanaging company co-owner (Dir. of Engineering). Work culture and environment is like being in North Korea, so you are watched constantly, and assessed (work quantity and quality) under a microscope daily. The Eng. Director has no people skills, and little real world experience, so R&D lab work is all he knows. He works off of opinions/perceptions, not facts, so work is a real grind. No future there at Ideal, and also no HR dept, run like a zoo ---- even Dan (CEO) doesn't know what is going on in the lab.

Pros

Intelligent and diverse company - there is a lot to learn here, for the right student.

Cons

We're small, so a lot of the systems and processes large companies take for granted aren't in place here - yet.
