Electrical Test Technician in Durham:

Making the world a safer place.
Senior Project Engineer in Northbrook:

Vice President (VP) of Research in Chicago:
Pros: Advancing public safety for society
Cons: Compensation
OK company to Start with, but not to grow.
Project Engineer:
Pros: Flexible hours, decent 401K with company match, 50% tuition reimbursement, Paid vacation and holidays.
Cons: Salary is not commensurate with position title or work experience. Minimal if any actual engineering performed but rather lots of administrative duties and activities. To get paid market value, you have to eventually leave the company and come back later or try and move to another section.
