Pros

Before my supervisor was let go, i genuinely enjoyed working for the company (or I should say for her). I didn't have much exposure to other employees. I worked in the main office where there were only 4 employees located. After she was fired a new woman came along who was so rude and unprofessional, which ultimately caused me to seek new employment and leave.

Cons

No room for advancement. The woman I worked with had worked there for over 10 years and instead of promoting within, hired the new woman. Most of the employees were uppity and rude to others. You had to pay $5 to wear jeans on casual Friday... I was late to work only one day of my employment there because my car broke down. My new supervisor called me and told me I needed to figure out how to get there (while stranded on the side of the road) because my coworker needed me to cover for her to take her lunch break and proceeded to call every 15 minutes to check on me. I had to leave my car and have my family figure out how to get it towed. My supervisor liked to pass her work off on me and take credit for it. These are just a few examples off the top of my head. Everything about that job was negative.

Pros

There is a lot of opportunities, as it is a very fast growing company-- which being a fast growing company brings about a lot of cons. Other reviews smash Marek's department but they make the site the money, hence why this department is put on a higher pedestal. (I suggest they work in that department for a day and they would see how much work one tech does on a daily basis in that department-- hint, no one gets out on time, ever. Not even holidays. Not even weekends.) That being said, there are lots of opportunities for overtime and the pay/benefits are better than most. As a low level tech there is a lot of grunt work, but I've heard it gets better as you move up-- and movement up seems to be frequent which is a tribute to the growth of the company but also their ability to recognize good workers (that is after you can shake off the temp status, which seems to take forever).

Cons

The temp/full time is a joke. They don't have the head count in the budget for "full time" employees which leaves good workers as temps for much longer than they deserve. Managers are overloaded and the communication across the board is beyond bad. Production departments are forced to do research type trials which is not something that should be happening. Unrealistic goals are set without giving resources to achieve these goals. Project management is non-existent. Negative atmosphere from current employees, I think they are stuck in a previously rough time? Safety culture is also a joke-- there is too much push on getting things done and when you don't want to work 12 hour days you have to move quickly which means safety is the first to go. **Set realistic numbers.** If you continue to work the machine (the people) without oiling (motivating) the machine then the machine will eventually break...

Pros

The company encourages work and personal life balance. The benefits are standard for this size of company.

Cons

Compensation is low for market rate. They convince you they will hire in at a higher level and when it comes time says there was nothing they could do. Training is learn as you go. Merit increases are very seldom if ever there is always a reason given why you did not deserve or the company did not hit the projected numbers to merit increases for the year.
