Pros

This is a terrific company with a great culture. They celebrate success but remain serious about their work, their technology and their customer. I surrounded by terrific and incredibly capable people and I was rewarded for performance. My team was equally enthusiastic about the company as an employer while I was there.

Cons

Little to none other than that a significant share of their revenue trends with the global manufacturing sector, which can lead to ups/downs. They have done a lot to diversify their served market in recent years.

Great group of people to work with. Everyone was always willing to help me learn more about the company. Company shuts down for a full paid week off during 4th of July and Christmas week.

Cons

Nothing bad to say here.
