What do you like best about the leadership team?

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

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

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

What did you like most about the interview process?

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

What makes you most happy at work?

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.

What are some of the best things about your team?

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.

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

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.
