Pros

- Location - Colleagues with the exception of majority of management - Benefits package (healthcare specifically)

Cons

Previous reviews were written by a manager within Rochester to throw prospects off. Do not believe the hype and take a job in sales at this company. It is negative from the top down. Behind closed doors, the management team is catty, negative, and weak. The strategy changes from day to day. They prey upon employees - you will be overworked, and underpaid but a raise/promotion will be dangled in front of you for years. Most sales people are beaten down, no one actually enjoys their job. The turn over is extremely high, they cannot keep good people because they are set up to fail. Inexperienced management team is the opposite of motivating and terrible leaders. I've never been a part of a more poorly managed company or negative/political environment in my career. The decision to move on was one of the best I've made. Don't believe the next few reviews Rochester Electronics management will write to try to salvage their ratings.

Pros

- Supportive owners and a generally well-run company that takes care of its employees - Uncapped bonus structure - Good medical benefits and work life balance - Some genuinely good colleagues - Don't worry about how well/bad you perform; rewards/promotions/pay adjustments are definitely not based on these - A comfortable place for those planning for retirement or not focused on career growth. If you are seeking career progression, opportunities are limited unless you navigate internal politics wisely.

Cons

- Blatant double standards; at times it feels like a “cowboy town”. - Recognition can goes to undeserving individuals. More qualified individuals are often overlooked despite being more capable. - Unofficial authority can be abused by some from the “inner circle.” - Experience can vary depending on your gender - Certain toxic and petty leadership running the show; if you didn't feel it, you are part of it. - Micromanagement due to insecure leadership - Ambiguity at its peak; certain leadership is unclear what he/she wants and try to shrink away from making direct decisions so as to have a scapegoat. - Gaslighting and undermining your contributions is the culture in some places. - Meetings are not conducted in English at times; insensitive to those who doesn't understand native languages, not that leadership cares. - There will be times you are required to remind people to do their jobs (yes).
