Pros

Flexible schedule, great employees, and it's in a great location in San Jose. At the end of the day the job I do means something to the world.

Cons

Where to start???? Hmmm, lets see.......Senior Management cares only about Senior Management! Their bonuses are through the roof, while the employees who make all the money have very small bonuses (Paid for by freezing our raises for two yeasr). Perks are almost nonexistent for the typical employee, unless you consider "Dog Day" once a year a perk (Management cooks hot dogs for the employees to eat). There are no advancement opportunities, unless you are a expert "Ass Kisser", and when there are raises they don't keep up with the cost of inflation. UL is way too top heavy, and it seems they add to the Senior Management weekly!

Pros

UL solution was my first office job and engineering experience. It did not disappoint, and got me excited for my future, The HR and hiring team were all so nice and helpful throughout my internship. My managers were helpful, patient, and understanding when I had a family emergency near the end of my internship that forced me to leave the country temporary. The internship showed the various departments in the company, not just the one we had applied for. Would definitely recommend anyone to apply for them.

Cons

UL solutions is focused in certifications and safety, so if you are expecting projects involving development and design this is not the place, We had to do a breakdown on products and perform tests to ensure it meets standards of safety.
