Pros: As a Software Engineer, the work-life balance at Alstern Technologies is decent most weeks. I found you can usually stick to your hours, which is good. There's some flexibility if you need to WFH occasionally for personal stuff, solid for a mid-sized company in the tech industry.
Cons: Things definitely ramp up when project deadlines hit for industrial solutions. You'll find yourself putting in longer hours then, which can be tough. It's not always consistent, and sometimes you feel pressure to stay late even when it's not strictly necessary.
Advice to Management: Try to manage project scope and client expectations better to reduce the frequency of intense crunch periods. Consistent expectations for engineering projects would really help.
