Inefficient and dated
Inefficient and dated
- I generally agree with the corporate culture.
- Little supervision/micromanagement.
- Self-directed work.
In my department, as a co-op, it was nearly impossible to find someone who had projects that I could help with. My time was wasted, and I didn't really learn anything applicable to engineering.
There was an overabundance of managers/leads. This led to confusing and conflicting information on who was responsible to whom and for what.
IT/office support was incredibly inefficient. It took weeks for me to get a phone, computer, internet access, and software.
Play a more active role in training new members on the technical staff. Help them to feel more included and relevant.

The interview process was very chill! They said upfront that they were going to make this a relaxed and non-stressful interview, which it totally was. The overall energy in the room was great, and they definitely made sure that you felt comfortable
