Pros
Incredibly intelligent members with varied backgrounds and outlooks make working at NextFab a great experience. Employees are also some of the best educated and creative people in the area. Classes and skills are free to staff and leadership encourages that everyone be adept with machinery and software.
Kontras
Most incompetent management experience in over 20 years of working across several industries. The amount of dishonesty and mistrust at the top of the company trickles into everything and taints it. Though it's encouraged that staff learn how to use equipment, it's a ruse - not only is it difficult to find time in one's personal life to take the classes, as work days are long and stressful, but the ulterior motive is not to foster creativity in employees, but to abuse them. Staff with basic knowledge in anything served as supervisors in shops with dangerous equipment because this place is a revolving door and they never have enough employees. Once an individual overcomes the soul-crushing blow that occurs when working there, they leave. Very little room for advancement.
