Pros

Other than the product, none at all.

Cons

Horrible Management, all over the place. Never know when things will be done. Lots of setback. Lots of stalemate. Screwed me over by blaming me for something I didn't even do. Never gave me an "investigation" and just fired me over something they have no evidence for. Pay is alright ,but will work you hard. Clearly underpaid. Will screw you over. If you take this position you will be blamed for things that you didn't even do. They won't even let you take leave or PTO because you always have to cover. So if I take a 1 week vacation. I have to work for one week 12 hour shifts. Very corrupt. Not enough workers.

Pros

Interesting technology and exposure to advanced automation systems. Opportunity to work on complex engineering projects.

Cons

Poor work-life balance with high expectations and little flexibility. Communication from leadership and the general manager was very limited, making it difficult to stay aligned. There was also a lack of transparency around performance expectations and job security. Even when performing well and fully understanding the environment and workflows, employees could be let go without warning or a second chance. This creates unnecessary turnover and results in lost knowledge, requiring time and resources to retrain new engineers who are unfamiliar with the systems.
