Engineering Management always looking for the bad versus good.
|
Working at Vicor is a paycheck, but not a very caring culture. Management, doesn't really support WFH for any positions. It's 1950 mentality in terms of how people are treated, I wouldn't recommend working there if it can be avoided. The President of the Company is constantly belittling people and putting them down. Cheap in terms of any type of stock options or bonus programs. That's reserved for the top .5% of management.
|
Cafeteria made great lunches. Marketing has solid management
|
See above. If you're going to work here, make sure you have a good level of self esteem.

People were great and made the job enjoyable

Really enjoyed my time here, the people made all the difference. It can be stressful and fast-paced but if you work well in that environment, you should do well here.

Friendly people to work with
|
I enjoyed working with Vicor Corporation as a Co-op student. It was my first industrial experience in this country and it really made me want to stay and work in the United States.

Good old boys network / incompetent management
|
Horrible place - don't even think about it....no matter what enticements or benefits are provided this is a toxic work environment.
Good ole' boys network from the get go....unfair decision and promotions - this is proven by the huge turn over rate year to year. The technicians stay the engineers and other professionals have mobility and can and DO leave - frequently....about a 25% dept turn over each year....
|
they don't charge you for breathing air.....
|
everything else....

Stressful and back stabbing environment
|
A typical work day at Vicor often pitted employees against each other. It is a back stabbing culture that is promoted from the top down. As a manager/director, most of my time was spent protecting staff from the finger pointing that occurred constantly.

State of the art technology.

fast paced, work/life fairly balanced, with job security
|
Always busy working on multiple tasks, addressing issues that originated from field application or customers, challenging but sometimes stressful.
The firmware developed has to be perfect, no room for error, otherwise could cause significant damage to the system, need to be well designed.
HW company, lacking good consistent SW development methodology.
The hardest part is due to limited debugging capability during the SW development.
Good cafeteria in the company and nice pingpong table for lunch hour play.
