Sinking ship - Software Engineer Symbotic Employee Review

There's is a lot of potential for developing your automation skills (Robotics, Data Analysis, Project Management)

Rigid schedules based on production times

Interesting technology and exposure to advanced automation systems. Opportunity to work on complex engineering projects.

Poor work-life balance with high expectations and little flexibility. Communication from leadership and the general manager was very limited, making it difficult to stay aligned. There was also a lack of transparency around performance expectations and job security. Even when performing well and fully understanding the environment and workflows, employees could be let go without warning or a second chance. This creates unnecessary turnover and results in lost knowledge, requiring time and resources to retrain new engineers who are unfamiliar with the systems.
