Pros

Managers seem to care about your well being and workload, there's a good work-life balance. Everyone at the company is really nice. Benefits are not bad too.

Cons

Upper management in Japan is sometimes out of step with what is going on in Concord and it can lead to some miscommunications. Pay is not very competitive compared to other Bay Area engineering roles.

Pros

Paychecks come on time, they have a decent rep in the ceramic packaging world. I worked with some wonderful people.

Cons

This is not a sales job, your are managing accounts with no incentive. QA issues non stop, legal issues, payment, anything and everything comes back on "sales". Every day was a new fire that always felt like preparing for a deposition where each employee starts pointing fingers at one another. Horrible moral. Depends heavily on your direct management. I'll just say that I had emailed some of the issues i was having to my manager (something I've never had to do my entire career) and nothing changed, except that they had logged into my email and deleted it so there was no record. It was not a good situation.
