Pros

The ONLY good thing about Advanced Energy is the coworkers. The engineers and techs are smart, helpful, and genuinely great to work with.

Cons

Upper management, though, is TOXIC. There are CONSTANT re-orgs, leadership keeps changing, and priorities shift nonstop. It’s hard to get anything done when your team or direction keeps getting flipped. They also shut down multiple sites and moved work to Mexico, which added even more instability. If you want stability and growth, DO NOT join. The people are great, but management will burn you out.

Pros

Engineering wise you can touch a lot of different systems whether it be FPGA, DC, RF, or C++ software Peers are very nice and fun to work with

Cons

Management can be rude and blunt which has it's time and place but here, it is more often than not. You can easily get siloed into doing very tedious tasks and sometimes it feels like you are working more on presentations than engineering so upper management doesn't berate you in front of everyone during a meeting. Lots of my peers occasionally work weekends, long extra hours, and go above and beyond for little recognition. Hard work is easily unnoticed here and under appreciated
