      Lifestyle company

      Staff r&d engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      This is a great company to work for if you're looking to do a 9 to 5 with minimal stress.

      Cons

      There's not a lot of room for real career growth and the compensation is pretty bad.

      Enjoyable work environment with generous benefits

      R&d engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      - Fun and interesting work - Great coworkers - Excellent benefits package (generous PTO, flexible in-person/hybrid/remote) - Hourly pay - Low stress projects, strong work-life-balance - Relatively flat management hierarchy

      Cons

      - Compensation is on the lower side - Mostly government/federally funded work. Not necessarily a con, but could be depending on your preferences

      How applied research companies should all be

      Senior research engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      Wonderfully kind culture, uncommonly technically and scientifically competent team members all the way up to upper management, and open-mindedness. There is real room to grow here and literally everyone will help you do just that.

      Cons

      The hourly pay model has pros and cons. The single (large) PTO bank and no official company holidays is an interesting model which you can make work for you, just something to be aware of as a potential downside.
