Process
Took it up to the HireVue phase of the interview process. It was simply 5 standard behavioral interview questions, so be sure to review the STAR method of answering questions. The three games at the end are sort of weird, but not exceedingly difficult.

Good compensation; the work environment has room for improvement
Manufacturing Engineer • Current Employee
Rochester, New York, United States
March 29, 2023
Pros: Money is great. Benefits are good, too. Most of the people are nice.
Cons: This place runs on opinions, documentation is generally poor, and the constant pressure to fix all the problems with machinery that should not have been accepted into the factory in the first place is not for everyone. Most people who work here understand this, but that doesn't fix the problem. Processes are only taught by word-of-mouth by the one person who people think knows the most about it, so consistency is a bit of a myth. The company's entire work philosophy depends on salaried employees working more overtime than is worth it for them to make ends meet.
