Pros

Lots of smart people knowledgeable about laser, optics and electronics. Lots people with scientific and academic background.

Cons

Lots of smart people without any real industry background in taking products into propduction. a manufacturing company without manufacturing engineer with very little quality control. And a management team without project management experience or discipline. The salary / pay is mediocre, management makes it think that you should be grateful you are working for Picarro."How cool is that" is what CEO like to say.

Pros

• Work is meaningful — the solutions we deliver make a real difference in industrial and field applications. • Strong, reliable team with people who know their craft and are willing to step in and help when needed. • Good mix of field work and technical challenges that keeps things practical and engaging. • Leadership supports problem-solving and respects people who take accountability and get the job done. • The interview process clearly laid out the company’s direction and was a major factor in my decision to join.

Cons

It’s fast-paced, but if you’re hands-on and like tackling real problems, it works in your favor.
