Formlabs Employee Reviews

Best job I have ever had

juvenile petty chaotic unsafe not inclusive

pretty solid overall I'd say

Formlabs is a great work environtment, but it's stuck in an awkward spot between start-up and established company. More structure is being created, which is great, but there is a noticeable in-group of people who have been with the company the longest, and who gatekeep most decisions.

Formlabs is great and is starting to shape and morph what was bad about the company into something great. Old mgmt is slowly but surely phasing out, so the next 3 years at formlabs will be exciting for sure.

Very transparent about where the company is, financially and within the industry. Also transparent about their goals for the same areas.

There is a lot of old mgmt that I feel keeps the company a bit stagnant and unable to advance as fast and as well as they should be able too. If fresh, experienced mgmt came in, it would open many doors internally and externally for Formlabs.

Very open and involved across all levels of the organization. Extremely driven, intelligent, and effective.

They are honest and open about issues and plans in our company.

Salary based with PTO as an Intern

Stock is nice, and the employer-paid portion of the benefits is very generous.

Fully covered health, vision and dental for individual employees

Comp. is all-around excellent. All employees have equity, which is reflected in how much everyone cares about the company. All the standard stuff (health, vision, etc.), plus premiums paid; lunches; incentives to take a bike/public transit to work; unlimited 3D printing!

Pay is low for the boston area - they are trying to catch up, but it creates inequity. I recently discovered that I was making less than a much more recent hire with significantly less experience on my team. Annual reviews try to address this, but it's incredibly slow.

Compensation is well below average market value and is not re-evaluated frequently enough to keep up with the speed of personal growth.

Their agility and ability to adapt to change

It is a supportive and collaborative culture - everyone is always willing ot take time out of their day to help or answer questions. Everyone is friendly and cares about everyone else on both a personal and professional level.

We all collaboratively band together to accomplish company goals despite the internal barriers and challenges we have to overcome. Also virtual happy hour has always been great with them.

Very driven, results-oriented, good mix of strategic and tactical skills and priorities. Personable and open.

Very intelligent, motivated, autonomous coworkers.

Most problems are approached with a growth mindset - everything is perceived as solvable if we put in the right effort.

Since the pay is so below market rate, people really are working/being hired for motivation that isn't money related; therefore we have a lot of passion here at the workplace.

Meritocracy and culture of excellence without being internally-competitive.

My take-home technical test for engineering was done on my own time without monitoring software or a countdown timer - this made the experience much less stressful and more reflective of a true work environment

The sales interview process was actually done with people who understood sales. It wasn't a generic HR screening nor was it a roleplay. They tried to understand how you would tackle an account, which was productive.

My coworkers - Formlabs is full of talented and creative people, with a wide range of interests, hobbies, and skills. I love learning about a totally new topic from someone who is an expert in it.

Being able to have an impact on the future of products and various markets here. I also love hearing customers who invest a lot with the company start off with a great customer experience with service and setup

The people and the opportunities - full autonomy allows you to develop projects and hit your own goals

Projects are challenging, independently managed, impactful to the company.
