Expect to work 40-hour weeks unless there is mandatory overtime, which was rare. But if you do work overtime, you get paid time plus extra, which is rare for salary. There are many smart engineers, and you can learn a lot in your time there.

Some managers have too many people underneath them and aren't very helpful.
