Pros
• Ask not what your company can do for you -- ask what's for lunch.
• If you like fixing broken things, this is the perfect place for you.
• "[At Picarro], we always ship". That's what people told me when I first started. Three years later, I realized the company would knowingly ship bad / broken / not tested instruments to customer to meet quarter revenue... So dead or alive, we always ship.
• The company put a [temporary] freeze on shipping bad instrument. I was let go because no instrument was shipped.
• Do you love customer service? Great! You can add extensive experience in dealing with mad customers, who paid a lot of money for bad instrument, to your resume!
• Picarro provides a great environment for meeting new people because employees come and go every week!
• If you want to go outside and smoke all day, go for it! Nobody will care.
This is the place where you'll have mind over matter... because if you don't mind, it doesn't matter.
Cons
Are you lonely? Tired of working on your own? Don't know how to make decisions? HOLD A MEETING. No action, talk only.
