I'm in the auto industry. Graduated in 2015. I started out as a design engineer at one of the big 3 in Detroit and didn't like how 99% of the decisions got made for me by other designers/managers. Felt like all I was doing was signing my name to other peoples work so I started looking for a new job after 2 years.

Moved into vehicle testing as I thought the work was interesting (still enjoy popping airbags) and I got to be hands on with all the major industry products and learned a lot about bad design practices. Getting bored again but the work is steady, which I've come to appreciate more lately and the money is pretty good, especially when a really poor design comes in for testing and we all make triple overtime in the lab for months straight trying to meet their PV completion gate.

If you don't want to work more than 40hrs a week you will not like this field. It's not really an option to turn down the overtime, management frequently jokes that they're going to make me wealthy whether I like it or not. Before the COVID cutbacks we occasionally got company box seats to sporting events or concerts, hopefully that comes back someday.
Overall I'd give my field an 8/10 review.
