Process

I applied online. The process took 1 week.

It was very straightforward, and it took less than a week from when I received an interview request to when I received an offer. There was one standard HR call with a recruiter and one 30-minute interview with a senior mechanical engineer.

Pros: Decent hourly/salary wage for most positions. Most business units are flexible with their time off requests.

Cons: Unfortunately there are bi-annual purges that make every employee cringe. More so, it’s the individuals with degrees and almost no working knowledge or interpersonal skills that keep their jobs.
