marketing intern - Marketing Intern DesignPoint Employee Review

Amazing company with great benefits and culture!!

They were so good they were acquired by another company

DesignPoint is a nice small company with a relatively stable income. Relaxed place to grow as a young engineer to an intermediate level. Daily exposure to a broad spectrum of local industries and businesses. A good cast of employees top to bottom. Progressive use of efficient business technology and employee freedom. Broad development options available to engineers (in the SolidWorks product family). Easy to make a positive impact and develop new ideas. Very competitive salaries and raises. A great place to network

"Small company" means little room for advancement. Much more stressful environment (high risk/high $ reward) in sales side of the business vs engineering/technical which is a normal one. Certain positions can involve heavy local travel, but most don't. Company financial goals/targets are always a pipe dream and start to negatively wear you down as an employee. They never meet their goals, yet continue to grow at a high pace. Little "hands on" engineering experience to be gained outside of 3D printing.
