Pros

In-house cafeteria with good food.

Cons

Upper and middle management at San Diego location are like fish out of water, not qualified for their job. Chief electrical engineer is basically a DEI promotion and completely clueless. Backstabbing is rampant. Old-boy club who are protected by their friends. They can do what they want, break any rules they want, but the rest of the employees must tread very careful. Wor8k building squeeks and crackle when walked on. Signs everywhere stating you can't walk and talk on your phone at the same time. Safety training video on how to properly walk the stairs.

Great work-life balance, 9/80 work schedule is ideal. The teamwork within my group is what I look forward to when coming in.

Lots of focus on EPS and FCF, which can be overwhelming at times.

Pros

The work is engaging, and can be cool. It's definitely advanced stuff and you'll learn a lot here.

Cons

Massive attrition across the business points to serious issues with upper management. It's nearly impossible to advance in your career. They will not counteroffer. They continue to take benefits, some of which are still advertised. Feels like people are pitted against each other far too often, and most feel taken advantage of. For the wrong type of person, this place can prove too stressful. For me this has resulted in several severe medical problems, which have forced my hand in leaving.
