Pros

Reasonably good team dynamics and a well-organized protocol for testing hardware. Usually, people from your team or another team will be available to assist if there are issues with testing or software. Tucson is a great place to live with a relatively low cost of living and many fun things to do outdoors, as well as a decent city culture. The 401k matching, even for interns, is a big plus. There's a rec room with ping pong, after-work fitness sessions, and a coffee/kitchen area available.

Cons

Not the youngest corporate culture. Tucson is extremely hot during the summer. Sometimes the availability of test equipment becomes a problem, but usually not bad enough to prevent work from getting done on a weekly scale.

Advice to Management

Increase the number of available test equipment (HIB/CIB boards, different systems for test time).

Orientation for test equipment use was the most boring thing I've ever done, I think. That could use some revamping.
