Pros

You are given a lot of responsibility and learn very quickly. Rather than becoming specialized, you learn a variety of skills that you can translate to many other industries. You work with great people other than upper management. If you are in a position where you are buffered from the owner, than you'll be alright.

Cons

The owner/president does not have a clear set of goals. He wants to make a standard piece of equipment but essentially re-invents the wheel every time. He does not constructively criticize. Rather he rips you to shreds like a bully to feed his own ego. You can give him credit for growing the company as large has he has recently but he also isn't grounded. Decisions aren't made rationally. They are more shoot from the hip. They also like to set you up to fail. If you want to climb the ladder, you essentially become a spineless/gutless puppet of the owner.

ASC Process Systems Response

Thanks for the feedback. ASC has grown to be the world's leading composite autoclave supplier due to great designs, great products, and most of all a great team of employees who care about the products and customers. We are the best in the world at what we do, and this success does not come without a core belief in perfection and customer satisfaction. I am passionate about this company and our products, and while I recognize that all people have different abilities, I expect each engineer to show a minimum level of attention to the quality of their designs and work product. Anything less is a disservice to the company and to the customer. When an engineer doesn't have pride in their own work, they will inevitably deliver sub-standard product. This does not go unnoticed at ASC, and it will probably result in a frank discussion with me. It sounds like you were on the receiving end of one or more of these discussions, and I'm sure it was not fun for you. Although I have softened my approach the last couple of years, it is still not a fun day for the engineer when he/she decides to deliver sloppy work to his/her manager or me. I hope you've recovered by now. Good luck with your career.

Pros

- People are friendly - Most people seem like they want the best for you - Good hard working environment

Cons

- Asking important questions was discouraged rather than encouraged which can lead to lack of engagement - Micromanage behavior - Probation is more focused on testing not training. This can work for some but not for others. There should be more engagement in the training.

Pros

Safety oriented almost to a fault. Small family feel environment in what seems like a big company. Opportunity to learn and skills to grow. Fairly decent benefits package.

Cons

Your sick time is your vacation time and your vacation time is your sick time. All wrapped in one called PTO you dont have any separate sick days aside from your vacation time. You must also use your vacation time first if you are sick. There are about 14 supervisors with yellow hats and it changes constantly. Your pay rate will never reflect the industry standard. Typical days consist of ten hours with Saturday work being regular. They care more about their salary workers then hourly and its evident with the mass amount of free snacks and drinks they provide for the salaried staff.
