Pros

Management is a good group of guys. Benefits are solid. PPO plan is a bit expensive.

Cons

Takes 1-3 months to get samples out to customer, essentially sucking the life out of new opportunities. Training is non-existent. It's very much a sink or swim type of sales system. If you aren't a great self-starter, it won't be for you. They WILL NOT tell you what you need to do. They have a million acronyms for services and positions that changes frequently so make sure you put together an Excel spreadsheet to keep track. Pricing is a bit higher with Advantech so you need to find better ways to show value.

Pros

Great people. Generous with company events and lunches. The industry is doing well with the AI/ robotics boom.

Cons

Pay sits well below industry standard. PTO is mandatory on holidays. Strong emphasis on tenure, with 401k vesting taking three years.
