Pros

A lot of overtime Simple set ups Easy to read blue prints Good parking and lunch area. A few treated meals every now and then. Yearly bonus and raise.

Cons

Mandatory saturdays, No recognition, small raises. Hard to advance. Only way to get a good wage is by leaving and returning around a year later.

Pros

Ability to work 100% remote.

Cons

ITAS OTC Manager has no clue how to manage, encourage development, or plan growth. He was too busy trying to keep his skills up and not actually cultivate newcomers and manage well. I felt alone and not supported by my manager. The environment is not great for newcomers to the company. The team supposedly has so much work, but was able to lay me off after returning to work from health event. Complete and utter joke. They do not honor their core values. Beware of this place.
