Not a good place for Field Applications Engineers
Applications Engineer • Current Employee

Pros: Good compensation. Company values set by the CEO are good.
Cons: No work life balance. Very political and back-stabbing environment. Growth is slow, with no path to progress. The Applications Engineering team is replacing older employees with new-grads. Upper management is all fluff and doesn't care much other than winning business. Employees are like resources and with 15-20 AEs reporting to one manager there is very poor management.
3.0
Overall, it is a good place to work.
