Experience at OTTO - werkgeversreview Tool Maker bij OTTO Engineering

Experience working with multiple project engineers Large increase in CAD skill Good workload Multiple interesting projects assigned at once Access to community of experienced professionals Company socials

Inexperienced hiring manager - offer details were not given until after the position was accepted - desires interns to accept positions on the spot. One-day acceptance period was granted at my request

- Good work-life balance - Everyone comes in to work every day - People are nice. Generally they don't care if you're kinda slacking off unless there's an emergency - You get to make military products that aren't actually weapons - Good diversity in the engineering departments

- No option to work from home, even if your job can be done fully remotely (except if your boss is cool) - All projects I've been on have had a bad case of scope creep - At least in the firmware team, R&D is done during production. Toy projects are uncommon. - Engineers don't seem to take much pride in their work (anymore) - Production processes are much better set up for hardware designs than for any kind of software. - Quality and End of Line testing are both overworked and aren't set up to test firmware.
