Great group of people to work with - Scientist Natural Systems Design Employee Review

Everyone at NSD is a team player and goes out of their way to be helpful, kind, and professional.

There really aren't any downsides.

• A genuinely great group of people who care about each other and the environment they work in. If you are an engineer or scientist, you’ll find a talented group of people here who all strive to collaborate and communicate respectfully. • Good benefits (medical, dental, vision all company paid) including 401k, and you can expense the cost of your cell phone (in exchange for business use). • Hybrid work environment with an option to work remotely at the discretion of your manager.

• The company is rapidly growing and is currently working out a new management structure. This can lead to some temporary confusion, but they are open about the process and engage in regular conversations with staff to gather feedback. • The marketing assistant role was new, and it seemed like responsibilities were still being defined daily. This led to a lack of clear direction and limited opportunity for autonomy. • The manager preferred a high level of detail, frequent reassurance, and close oversight, which could be challenging for someone seeking more independent work. • During onboarding, I discovered that some of the skills listed in the job description were considered "nice to have" but weren't necessarily the core responsibilities. The manager mentioned trust would need to be built before being allowed to contribute more meaningfully in marketing activities. As a result, the role ended up being more of a personal/administrative assistant role than Marketing Assistant.
