TE also does general industrial design work for external clients. Their mechanical engineering capabilities seemed less fully developed.
I like their ID work, but at some level it seems more like well-proportioned, carefully considered graphic design - rectilinear forms with radii and cylindrical knobs. I can't count the number of ID projects I've worked on where an OP-1 was used as inspiration.
[source: A company I worked for worked on a project which started with TE doing ID and ME. We took their prototype level ME further, but not sure where the project ended up.]
