Pros
Interesting work, especially in aerospace and defense, provide some fulfillment. Also, flexibility with work hours is a plus, and some coworkers are really talented and supportive.
Cons
As an RF Engineer at Wenzel Associates, it’s hard to ignore the dysfunction that runs throughout the company. The management here lacks the technical understanding and competency needed to make informed decisions, leading to misaligned priorities and unrealistic expectations. There’s a constant disconnect between leadership and the engineering/production teams, which often results in frustrating miscommunications and missed opportunities. Career growth is practically non-existent here. There is minimal support for professional development, and opportunities for advancement are very rare. Communication is poor across the board. The work culture can be draining and while the programs supported can be interesting, the overall environment is not one that contributes growth or enthusiasm for long-term success.
