Pros

Great product niche, long history in the marketplace. A lot of really good people trying to help. Some good product designs.

Cons

The family leadership is dis functional to an extreme. Instead of embracing contemporary manufacturing systems they manage by screaming and yelling a lot. The company was built on a reputation of quality, allowing high margins. They now focus on low cost by cheapening the products while trying to maintain margins of high quality. They are consistently late, relying on old relationships that are failing.
