Toxic Culture

Pros

Pay is decent for a job you don't interview for, and asks very little of you intellectually and physically

Cons

Toxic inter-departmental culture, lots of on-the-job racism, animosity toward new employees is incredibly blatant and makes what should be an easy and relatively mindless job excruciating to walk into every day. Most days, I encountered 4-6 hours of downtime out of an 8 hour day except at the end of the month when they'd ask you to stay as late as 5-7 hours past your regular end-of-day. Symptomatic of poor management. They have also been losing some of their important contracts. Future does not look bright here.

Pros

Excellent company to work with, people orientated, team culture, cutting edge technology, excellent reputation in the Engineering world.

Cons

The cold weather in Rochester MN takes some getting used to but the scenery and the people more than make up for it. "Minnesota Nice" is real. It's a way of life up here. Also the Mayo Medical Center ads a very divers, international populace and extra culture and entertainment. So the cold can be tough but it is balanced out.

Pros

Co-workers are nice enough to work with but not a team really.

Cons

Over worked, under paid, not valued for the work done. When accomplish something that is amazing instead of getting recognized you get told don't get a big head now.
