Pros

Nice benefits and pay for the area.

Cons

Favorites in departments are not held to the same standards as those that do work. Engineers appear to not know what they're doing and either get upset when mistakes are pointed out or find some way to reroute blame.

Not ADA friendly, as I had worked to get accommodations with managers along with the ADA agent, where we came to an agreement for accommodations that would allow me to still work. It seems these accommodations helped with singling me out for recent layoffs. I had asked to switch departments before and was told it would be a last resort if we couldn't come to an agreement for accommodations.

I had a manager who kept assigning different packages for different equipment to me, with some not even being installed yet. I kept getting excuses for why they were assigned and why the manager wouldn't sign off on packets that should have been.

Advice to Management

Retrain both Engineers and Techs, as many quality issues are happening from poor training that leaked over from COVID time.

Do better screening of managers, as I have seen too many that shouldn't have been in that position, along with some that would ask me about issues and if there was a way to bypass them.
