Sucks

Pros

You meet some cool people Sometimes they have events like bbqs and pot lucks

Cons

Management doesn’t care about their staff. They have unrealistic expectations for metrics. They come to work and don’t do anything but will penalize you if you don’t do what they want. The hours suck. When you first start out you’re most likely working a 3pm-11pm shift with days off in the middle of the week. The program they use stops working so you are sometimes unable to answer an alarm for 5 mins. They’re constantly understaffed because they treat their employees like crap. The turn over is ridiculous

Poor leadership

Pros

Some great people who are passionate about what they do. Many long tenured employees - especially in field service.

Cons

Quality issues are rampant across many product lines. Repeated product holds and shutdowns not to mention huge issues in-field with implementation and support. No commitment to succession planning - they pay lip service to this, but there is no integrity from upper management. North American leadership is a joke.

Not a nice place to work

Pros

you can find nice colleagues and peers

Cons

definitely not a good place to work for women, especially within Senior roles. Lack of ledarship, vision and real leaders. Senior Management only worried about personal visibility and career path.
