review and is evolving.
Pros: The base salary for a Field Service Engineer here is pretty competitive, which is good for the Boston area. Working with detection systems is interesting, and the health insurance options are decent, not bad at all.
Cons: The 401k match isn't great, honestly. Paid time off feels a bit stingy when you look at other mid-sized tech companies. It's tough to feel truly rewarded financially beyond that initial base offer.
Advice to Management: Please consider improving the 401k match and increasing PTO. These are major factors for retaining talent, especially as a growing mid-sized tech company.
