Pros

One of the best places I've ever worked in terms of Work Environment & People > Managers tend to have an open door policy > Work utilizes true engineering knowledge: calculations, CAD, etc. > Combination of hands on and design experience > Opportunity to work in different business segments all over the world > Flexibility

Cons

> A fair amount below the APEGA average manufacturing engineering salary > Work can sometimes seem repetitive, especially with some of the internal software > Lower than average vacation days/ no flex days > Have to be in the right group in order to advance well
