Pros

The company offers flexible work schedule.

Cons

HR policies are written so vaguely that HR managers interpret them differently and therefore, employees are not held to the same guidelines across the company. Pay for the area is competitive because the pay for this area is very low compared to the cost of living. Income inequality - bonuses used to be great for all employees but only those in management receive decent bonuses now.

Pros

Friendly, helpful colleagues. Vast variety of opportunities for engineers, especially younger ones. Actively supporting the communities where we live and work. Recent changes in management have restored positive outlook.

Cons

A lot of eggs are in the circular-economy basket rather than having the risk more evenly distributed among our product streams. We've lost a lot of talent recently to other businesses, partly because of unhappiness with former management but partly because of pay. Annual pay increases exist but have not even come close to keeping up with inflation.
