Good company with great ambitions - werkgeversreview Anonieme werknemer bij SHINE Technologies

High quality team. Extremely interesting projects.

Depending on the role, you may have to travel between the Janesville and Madison offices.

SHINE is a great place to work. PEOPLE: A lot of focus is put on finding the right people. After working close to 30 years in a variety of industrial environments, I can say that SHINE does a great job of hiring great people. The culture here is one of teamwork and grit; I have yet to come across someone that wasn’t willing to go out of their way to help their teammates. It’s a very collaborative environment. After working in numerous other sectors, I’d say the culture at SHINE has been my favorite balance of doing the right thing and still having fun while doing hard and important work. The opportunity for growth here is a huge plus. If you work hard, do the right thing, innovate and communicate, you will succeed. In a company that is growing as fast as SHINE, you will find the opportunity to grow and develop, especially if you are new to your field or the industry. This sets SHINE apart from so many other places I’ve worked in my career; this opportunity can’t be overstated, if you are looking for somewhere to grow, this is it! The atmosphere is flexible; you’re given the space to get the job done and treated like a professional. MISSION: SHINE is simultaneously manufacturing lifesaving Lu-177 while performing fusion R&D. We’re implementing new technologies and new techniques. It’s truly gratifying to come to work with the knowledge that we make something that saves lives. The research and work we do is cutting edge. We interface with peers across a number of sectors and not only is what we do on the cutting edge, but how we do it is right there as well. The culture here breeds innovation, and frankly that atmosphere is part of what makes working here so gratifying. With the recent addition of the SPECT side of the business at the end of 2025, a continual striving for our share of the Lu-177 market, and the refocus on our main production facility, there has never been a more exciting time to be part of SHINE!

It’s not always easy working at a company in its early stages of production, but the pros vastly outweigh the cons, and honesty the cons just feed into the pros. It is certainly a fast-paced environment. Because of what we do and where we are in our journey, we sometimes need to pivot priorities. This can be frustrating for some folks; it adds to the challenge for sure but navigating through these challenges with the team is part of what makes working here gratifying. This isn’t a place that’s been doing the same thing for 50 years; don’t expect to find everything laid out for you when you get here. We’re building the future, the processes, the systems; this takes time and the road isn’t always smooth, but that’s part of the package. SHINE manages safety and risk in an appropriate manner. You can’t innovate without challenging the status quo. SHINE is in a different place operationally and financially at this stage. Some of the more thoughtful reviews from past years touch on where we were. The more negative reviews are unfortunate; a handful of them are clearly disgruntled folks with an ax to grind. The more thoughtful criticisms speak to previous challenges at SHINE. We’ve been in some tough spots, but more due to external market challenges in my opinion. Turnover was a problem for a bit, but this has turned around, a very encouraging sign/metric that we’re heading in the right direction.
