Pros

- Layoffs are rare - Benefits are good - Remote work possible

Cons

- Pay is low - Management lacks professionalism, too much focus on their personal goals and little focus on shared goals - Tech stack is behind and corporate policies make it very difficult to keep it up to date - Very little application of software architecture knowledge. You're more likely to see an archaic approach suited to the manager's comfort than a more modern approach suited to the application requirements - rampant nepotism in hiring and promotion. There is no objective clear path for career advancement

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.
