Pros
West Greenwich site was an extremely well run, well lead, and well oiled machine yet still was able to pivot on a dime. It was impressive how coordinated initiatives and manufacturing campaigns would be executed at the facility. As a member of the process development organization it was empowering how much you could do as an engineer. It is a very science driven organization and they heavily pressed on their Lean agenda so you could implement a lot of innovative changes in an actually agile manner. Teams were really collaborative and cordial even in the most heated of technical situations which made it a great meaningful working environment.
Cons
It took forever to get promoted. The general attitude was that you needed to do several rotations at the same level as well as move you and your family around the world multiple times before you get considered for the next level. Because that's how a lot of the senior leadership got there, there was an expectation that the rank and file would do the same. The leanness of the company has a negative impact on the illusion of work-life balance. There were a lot of single points of failure because so many things would run through one individual who hadn't taken a vacation day in months.
