      Challenging Work

      Mechanical engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      I very much enjoyed the work and the technical challenges I faced. The travel benefits were pretty awesome too!

      Cons

      Some of the senior management were hard to work with and the office politics game was something you had to be on top of.

      Thanks for taking some time to share your experiences with Veeco. Glad you enjoyed the work, technical challenges, and travel. Hopefully, you made some great memories in neat places around the world. It's unfortunate you mention difficulties working with senior management and office politics. Our challenges in supporting our customers are enough without navigating those kinds of issues. If you have specific examples or ideas you'd be willing to share that can help us be better, please reach out. You can contact me at bwright@veeco.com or Bob Bradshaw and rbradshaw@veeco.com. Best of luck in your new adventures, wherever they may take you. Best, Brenden

      The best company

      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      Very nice people, and a good management system. They are very friendly and you can feel they act like a family. I am just talking about Veeco San Jose. It was Ultrtech before and people still are friendly like in the old days. You can see lots of old people who act like your uncle or your dad and they help you in any situation. All higher managers respect the new employee and they try their best to make the situation comfortable for them. The whole environment is very good and the work-life balance is perfect. Nobody pushes you and you have the freedom to grow. I took more than 10 courses and they paid for all of them.

      Cons

      The only cons that they have is that they are too much friendly. For example an engineer can not work for more than two weeks and nobody says you should do something. This situation put pressure on other people who likes t work.

      Thanks for sharing your feedback about Veeco. I agree - working at Veeco is never boring and the technology is amazing. On the other hand, it seems like we have some opportunities for growth and development. If you haven't considered it or done so already, please talk with your manager or HR Partner about what might be possible. Or, you can reach out to me or Bob Bradshaw directly. We'd love to hear your ideas about core development values for personal growth. Thanks again for your comments and for making a material difference. Best, Brenden
