Pros

At Cypress there is a great team atmosphere of people who are willing to assist if they can. The knowledge base is huge and there are a lot of intelligent people making tough decisions every day.

Cons

Even with all the knowledge, the company is crippled with the inability to think at growing into a company who is competing in the current industrial standard. State of the art products are ran on old machines that require constant maintenance to keep above 65% efficiency. Saving a $ is top priority, saving time and stress is not a priority. "Work smarter, not harder" is said but when the smarts come out, the ideas are crushed into long drawn out meetings that end with no real progress.

Pros

Lots of documentation, good teleconference tools around the world. Nice people at working levels.

Cons

No employee and customer focus. Company operating around CEO. Abusive management and bad languages used frequently. 8am policy is hard for working families with young kids. Processes, memos and specs are overkilling. Groups compete against each other instead of doing right things for the company. Little collaboration between groups. No work and life balance.
