Pros

1. One of the best reasons to work at UL is the belief in the Public Safety mission. The main and only focus is ensuring that normal everyday products that you and your family find on your store shelves are safe from any electrical, mechanical or fire hazards. You can't help but feel good about that. 2. The environment is friendly with a good racial and gender mix of employees.

Cons

Changes....and there are a lot of em. There are implementations of new processes that have not been successful. Some of the software is old and slow actually inhibiting the mission to be the Be the Fastest, Highest Quality, Most Client Friendly safety certification organization in the world.

Pros

This is a company of PEOPLE. The work to life balance is incredible. The work is not stressful and it can be fulfilling. There is a ton of training classes internally to take. If you do not like where you are in the company, you can transfer to a different department. This is a global company, so if you would like to relocate there is a possibility. Even as this company has become for profit, their values and morals for creating a safer world have not slipped. This is a company of values and morals, and it's ingrained in them.

Cons

Personal growth is stagnant. Your career is set out as soon as you join. (This is not necessarily a bad thing, it really depends what type of person you are) Any career jumps faster than expected will not come within 8-10yrs of employment here(and usually involves changing departments). Salary is not very competitive with the engineering field as a whole. The job is not complicated, this means anyone can do it. There are a multitude of engineering roles filled by non engineers, we just call them "project handlers" This company is a little confused as to what they would like to become. BUT there is one thing for sure, this CEO wants to make the world a better place.
