Pros

There are operational personnel/talent that really care and make great team members They finally eliminated the annoying HealthyRoad that was mandatory for many of it employees. Problem was that it took them over 10+ years Good to have all operational personnel and facility on one site

Cons

Low grade/range salary for engineers; especially considering they get paid 30% more at energy companies Benefits are horrible: Step based 401K where you wouldn’t the full benefits until you give 5 years of service (means to control employee). Medical benefits was 40% higher out of pocket to the employee (who is Kesley Care?!). Flexible work hour are nonexistent. Real lack of New Product Development direction. They have an NPD engineering group but very slow pace, to heavy on documentation and getting approval for Japan or now Marengo can limited real career development for engineers. High turnover rate (~20% in 2020-2021); many new engineers and product specialist leave within 6 months to 2 years. Management pov is that engineers are resources not assets to the organization (“We just need butts in the cubicles… - managements motto) Training program a joke; management will push talent to get trained with a skill set or specialist but not apply that training within 6 weeks and then talent is sitting there wondering: what was the point?

Pros

1. The company has been struggling financially for more than a year, but leadership does not seem to have a clear plan to improve the situation. 2. Annual salary increases have been frozen. The company 401(k) match has also been suspended. Career growth and promotions have slowed down or completely stopped for many employees. 3. At the same time, leadership continues to push employees back into the office. Many people are required to follow a hybrid schedule without a clear business reason. Employees spend time and money commuting just because the company president wants people in the office. 4. HR is not helpful when employees raise concerns. In my experience, HR's priority is protecting the company, not supporting employees. 5. Instead of making difficult decisions openly, management creates conditions that encourage people to leave on their own. Freezing merit increases, stopping the 401(k) match, limiting advancement opportunities, and pushing strict hybrid work requirements all feel like ways to reduce headcount without layoffs or severance costs. Overall, morale has dropped significantly, and many employees no longer trust leadership.

Cons

Good people on the teams. Many employees work hard and try their best despite the challenges.
