Pros

Great people, good pay, good benefits

Cons

Limited advancement potential. Flowserve is a manufacturer of heavy industrial equipment - over time layoffs have been more frequent. The company is doing the right thing for shareholders by pushing towards moving to low cost regions for manufacturing and engineering, but that leaves those working in USA plants in a not-so-great position. As a result of drive towards globalization, advancement opportunities continue to diminish. Flowserve is currently taking opportunity in market downturn in oil and gas to really speed up plans to eliminate USA jobs and move to low cost regions.

Pros

A lot of good people working here.

Cons

Outsourcing too much design work to India and running with too little design and engineering staff in Kalamazoo. Quality is really suffering at the expense of speed. Nexus is a really poor PLM system. It has hurt productivity significantly and caused employees immense frustration.
