Pros

Successful company with a big name and innovative products. Good benefits. OK work life balance.

Cons

Need to know upfront whom are you working for. Inexperienced young managers do not know about leadership. Culture induces lots of fear as many 'old' employees let go on a routine basis. Since it a private company, it is like a Wild West, meaning anyone can let go without reasons. It's all about GO...Go..without thinking or putting any thoughts. If you bring any holistic view, it is not very welcome. Mgmt. Is also greedy since it is all about numbers. Manufacturing floor is pathetic and it is cramped with all equipments and no room to breath!

Pros

Deep pockets. would spend money as needed, if asked. There were some world class best practices at one time. Employees were given the 'gold" standard for separation packages. 1ST CLASS!

Cons

Why did all of the word class activities stop? This occurred before the announcement to move the factory.
