Pros

Most of the people I worked with during my brief stint at MotionAi22 were great.

Cons

This location is sort of a standalone company that has been sold twice in the last 5 years. The revolving door at this location of this company spins fast. Unfortunately, I got assigned to a nightmare project. It was rush-rush as it was, then I got tag teamed by a project manager that micro-managed every little thing I did, and a junior engineer that was in charge of this project that simply threw out almost every change I made for the aforementioned project manager. I was the only remote employee among many on-prem employees; I believe resentment of this was a factor in my employment being ended just before the end of the trial period. Corporate level training is top-notch and plentiful. Job specific training was abyssmal. One of my tasks during my tenure was to document their existing software and teach the other software engineers how it worked.

Pros

Technical challenge, providing solutions to customers, coworkers

Cons

Backend of company is painfully slow to work with at times, Because we are consistently on the cutting edge and pushing the limits of technology learning curve is steep, but very rewarding.

Pros

- Small, close-knit shop of under 30ish people (at the time of my employment), not hard to get to know everyone. - All needed tools and safety gear (if applicable) provided - Forklift training offered if desired - You can walk in off the graduation stage with no hands-on experience and if you have a desire to learn assembly they'll teach you from the ground up. - Management is flexible regarding family/life needs once you've proven yourself. - Shifting around to cross train between assembly, machine shop, CnC department and inventory can be fairly easily accommodated as each departments weekly workload fluctuates and you can be rotated in during a lull to learn the ropes. - Management, at least during my time of employment, is very easy to talk to and always has their door open (Don C and Kirby Y) - Profit sharing bonus program, BUT can be hit-miss since it's based on overall USA corporate profitability and not individual locations.

Cons

- After about a 8-12 months you'll have learned all there is to learn. Each project/client has their nuances, but the core skills are the same. For comparison, imagine different toppings everyday, but the same flavor of ice cream. - Corporate is very stingy about raises, the rate you start is the rate you'll stay at outside of the yearly +$0.15-$0.25 (if that) - If you find yourself irritated by a coworkers mannerisms or aura there's really nothing to be done since the employee pool is so small.
