Pros

-Great pay -Great benefits -Lots of opportunity to solve problems -Great HR personalities -Great folks in maintenance and engineering

Cons

-Certain toxic behaviors by specific people are not corrected by management through direct intervention or through HR, allowing for a hostile work environment -The toxic behaviors include insincere speaking, malicious conduct , slander, and pursuit of selfish ambition at the expense of others -The toxic behaviors are coming from certain folks in management positions -These behaviors are then learned by folks coming up in the ranks and perpetuated by management's purposeful or ignorant inaction -Since the work environment is perceived as toxic, there is a high turnover -Turnover leads to various projects and efforts falling through the cracks, and constant training, driving down performance of the business -Key people leave due to the turmoil and then further kills performance due to key business process information loss -Folks who stay are promoted to levels that are beyond there skill set and experience, which then perpetuates poor performance and toxic behaviors

Pros

Saft is very accommodating. They’re very flexible. They do a good job of promoting from within. There are some really good managers that really care about their people, and what they do. There are some employees that truly care about what they do and are willing to help wherever needed. This company has a lot of different ways an entry level employee can grow. Benefits package and 401k are very competitive.

Cons

Overall management is lacking. Engineering and their inability to problem solve is dragging the company down. There is very little accountability from the top down. Decisions are made predominantly by engineering with little input from area experts, yet results are not owned by those decision makers. Quality over quantity is preached but rarely shown if a decision between the two needs to be made. Pay is less than comparable businesses in the area, and the incoming talent reflects that. Company grew way too fast and overall culture and morale have suffered.
