Pros

- Easy work - Very stable job - Culture isn't toxic - Good benefits with competitive 401k matching

Cons

- Onboarding was poor - Poor training process for new hires - Work is very repetitive - Unorganized - Low professional growth - Some managers like to micromanage - Very low pay for those without a Engineering degree with small opportunities for promotion - Small bonuses and raises due to work being easy - Required to be onsite 5 days a week - No amenities onsite (gym, lunch, and snacks). Only Coffee, water, and tea is provided - Majority of Senior Management do not have experience working at other companies - A lot of rules for security purposes. No phones or backpacks are allowed in working areas but management doesn't provide employees with locks or enough lockers to secure their belongings. - During the summer depending on your shift everyone is required to work 4:30 am - 4:30 pm

One of the unique things about working at UL Solutions is that we get to see new products before they hit the market. Our customers are some of the biggest and most beloved brands, and they trust us to keep their new products in a secure environment to ensure confidentiality until their products officially launch. This requires our labs and lab employees to work under strict guidelines, like keeping belongings secured. For those working in our labs, that work is hands-on testing, requiring employees to be onsite five days a week to run those crucial safety tests. Across the organization, we have some roles that are fully remote and many others that are hybrid. Just like other organizations, our service offerings are vast and range from relatively simple to highly complex, with job requirements and compensation in line with each position.

We have been navigating change to transform in today's quickly evolving market. UL Solutions was a not-for-profit until 2012. So, as the business has evolved to include more rigor and structure, it can feel more corporate. Restructuring is not a decision that management takes lightly. These changes are the result of thoughtful decisions our leadership team has made to realize our full growth potential. We have a robust training program through UL University, and we include all employees, regardless of job level, in our annual incentive program. Thank you for sharing this feedback.
