I currently work at UL, started in 1983. Loved it then, it's a huge struggle today. UL has lost sight of its Mission. - Staff Engineer UL Solutions Employee Review

Pros

The work is very interesting; the people are fantastic; flexible hours are great; wonderful opportunity to work with external clients from all areas of every industry.

Cons

Managements main concern is now about money whereas in the past, it truly was about safety. We're bombarded with numbers regarding growth and revenue and lay employees off every couple of years. No replacement for those laid off, work gets loaded onto remaining employees. "Do more with less" and running "lean" is a troubling way to conduct business, especially for those work 40 plus and don't get compensated for it.

Pros

UL solution was my first office job and engineering experience. It did not disappoint, and got me excited for my future, The HR and hiring team were all so nice and helpful throughout my internship. My managers were helpful, patient, and understanding when I had a family emergency near the end of my internship that forced me to leave the country temporary. The internship showed the various departments in the company, not just the one we had applied for. Would definitely recommend anyone to apply for them.

Cons

UL solutions is focused in certifications and safety, so if you are expecting projects involving development and design this is not the place, We had to do a breakdown on products and perform tests to ensure it meets standards of safety.
