Pros

Generally, the people I worked with were good and for the most part, easy to get along with. I had some good experiences early on, helping determine flaws in a signature product, working with production engineers. The health insurance plan given to us was good, not HMO crap but a PPO.

Cons

I felt that the pay was low for assembly line workers (i.e. assemblers, product testers, and packers) and technicians,, given how expensive Northern New Jersey is. Also, there is conflict between the night shift (when I worked) and the day shift. The day shift would frequently accuse the night shift of damaging things or disorganizing the workplace. In one production area, the day shift tried to pass off their mistakes onto the night shift. Also, I was supposed to eventually work as a technician, as I was studying electronics, but never got there. Eventually I left to take some graduate engineering courses. I felt many employees, particularly on the night shift, were overqualified for their work.

Pros

Relaxed. Management understands traditional AV industry is saturated and is trying hard to pivot the company into new direction. Whether it will work or not is to be seen.

Cons

This place really needs to re-evaluate how they hire and retain engineers. Across all disciplines, there are many senior level engineers who have no idea what they are doing. Some lack such basic engineering skills and knowledge which makes one wonder if they had proper higher level education or lied about their past career experiences on their resume. Most of them are genuinely nice people, but they are really dragging down productivity.
