Pros

Depending on which group and individual you work for, there is a lot of flexibility when it comes to work hours. If you need to take care of your family or other personal business, you can work weekends or after hours to make up the time, on a limit basis and with the approval of your supervisor. Decent pay and benefits, company pride's themselves on being middle of road when it comes to compensation and benefits.

Cons

Since going "For Profit" status with the IRS, all management has been very critical of revenue performance. the focus has shifted from quality services to speed of services (to bill client's sooner than waiting for a quality product). Significant stress and threats of layoffs if segment or business unit does not succeed. Lots of bureaucracy and too many layers of management.

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.
