Pros

I enjoyed the 4 day full time work week.

Cons

You are left in the dark till after the fact. One example that comes to mind is strange spending. We got 1 cupcake and a fancy napkin that appeared to cost more than the cupcake for setting a $1BB gross revenue record for the company. It said "Thanks for a Billion!". The following morning we were greeted by docile floor managers picking apart irrelevant production situations as if it is the lowest paid employees fault. Your skillset is not ever rewarded. It is actually ill advised to work harder, learn more, or become a student of their practices and products. The only way to earn more financially is to stay employed longer. The more you do, the more you are expected to pick up the slack of lazy co-workers.

Pros

Not some generic "market leader" but actually the market leader for industrial automation measurement sensors. Highly tenured products with highly differentiated products make for a very positive work environment. Good medical, insanely good 401k plan, burnout is voluntary and not cultural. Great safety culture and good COVID-19 protocol.

Cons

Has the trappings of large, old company. Innovation at a glacial speed, especially with resources internally. Many colleagues are on a long term career coast and creativity is stifled. Did not suffer COVID-19 well as a business with lots of layoffs.
