Pros

Relocation assistance, but this is only an attempt to keep employees up to 2yrs. Most sites have to hire from halfway around the world just to find someone willing to take the job.

Cons

Pay: Below Nation averages and little raises, 2% is usually what to expect. Benefits: Health insurance(Aetna) cost are outrageous. Increases about 20%/annually. Don't get sick. Schedule: Rotating shifts, night shifts. Why go to school to do manual labor at 1am? No promotions available. Basically, IBA hires degreed engineers to grease equipment, run cable, power cycle electronics, push buttons, and clean. No exposure to standard engineering tools, only mechanical tools like screw drivers. If you want to get real engineering experience IBA US is not the place.
