"Provided a low pressure work environment where team work is a major virtue and everyone is working toward the same goal. Plenty of support at all levels to help you succeed. Everyone was very prideful of your research and where they worked."

CAD Drafter

"Worked for this employer for six months. Unfortunately, it wasn't the most pleasant experience. Facilities weren't up-to-date, technology used was average and projects worked were typical engineering problems, not cutting edge or challenging problems. If you are looking for an employment position working with cutting edge technologies or working with subjects at the top of the research community, this is not for you."
