Pros

Some skilled and fun colleagues, some products are really innovative. Good benefits plan Nice company car Nothing else i could think of

Cons

Business unit manager who is not trained and bully employees as punishment for own failures... Very few good managers and their days are counted as other managers are lurking and cannibalize business unit profits. Respect your employees! Do not shout, yell or disgrace them - it barely legal and you could get sued. Crazy hours which will worn anyone out and few workers already had breakdowns for few months... Marketing is very slow and not responsive production is slow, service and application support Are not working together which complicates global satisfaction. Many software solutions to master and very little compatibility.

Pros

Great people in field and customer facing positions. Vast knowledge base of applications and instrumentation.

Cons

Very poor executive leadership- don't want to spend money on marketing, promotion of instrumentation, or relevant customer applications. Most do not know industry. Wonder why sales are decreasing.
