Pros

You could achieve work life balance if your immediate manager would allow it. Could pay well if your manager fights for you.

Cons

Senior management really wants to save their own job. Wasted millions of $ by switching CAD SW and ERP systems.

Pros

Technology focused company staffed by highly competent, creative and competitive engineers. Heavy R&D investments enable pursuit of capital intensive innovations.

Cons

Organizational and people management is a pervasive weakness due to promotion of technologyists into senior management roles without sufficient education and training in the principles of management.
