Pros

Top 3 Polymer 3D printing company

Cons

Where do I begin? Too many to even start. Toxic work culture. Nepotism. A lot of bait and switch. Minimal respect for employees’ work life balance. Minimal empowerment. Zero understanding of trust with customer and employees. “Guilty until proven innocent culture…” Leadership lacking in every sense of the word “leadership.” “Good old-boys mentality” only focused to keep their own people in place. Functional teams focused on politics and manipulation (especially in Israel). Company culture based on “who can scream the loudest - is the smartest.” One of the major responsibility is to recruit and hire top exec- with recent hires - it’s clear top mgmt lack the ability to properly judge character - zero backbone from functional heads to voice their concern. No amount of money is worth the stress, disappointment, and emotional and mental disrespect. Lastly - never work for a company where TRUST is sold to the next “man up” or “next-yes-sir” - only to be disposed when you have reached your useful life.

Pros

I was there in 2017. GD won't let me select anything earlier. Anyway, awesome company. Worked on 3D printers. Tested their software and hardware - CAD system.

Cons

Not sure any CONS apply. It was a good and fun job. Team was cool. Boss was awesome.

Pros

Some of the people here are great. Some really kind-hearted well meaning people, but seems to be tainted by constant pressure and mismanagement from leadership.

Cons

Absolutely horrific sense of future direction. Company seems to keep thinking it lives in the heyday back in the 90s and the software development processes here are quite lacking in some areas. No sense of growth anywhere, and in the years I was there, no one seemed to progress. And the ones who did were rather incompetent. It's the blind leading the blind (especially management in Isreal). There were some real crunch times on this project, and the people leading it... let's put it this way. They have sight, but no vision. And no collaborative effort
