Pros
Good Salary, Benefits, Campus, Cafeteria
Cons
Very poor Management in IT with some inexperienced middle management and a few arrogant directors who are not qualified to be in that position. West bend's IT Management don't believe in their Fulltime employees at all; you will be treated real badly; they only believe in the 3rd party contractor's. So as a full time employee; If I need to put in your view in front of the management; the best way is to provide the information to the 3rd party contractor and let them present to the management;... So you can imagine how worst your situation will be as a Fulltime employee. They have employee appreciation programs like West bend way and Rise to IT .... Please...Please stop these ; this is a very demotivating to the actual people who are contributing to the IT.. In the last 1 year in the IT; I have never seen a single case where the real talent is appreciated with these programs. I have several examples where they have given this award to people who has created outages and losses and created 100's or more hours of headache ; but was given the award saying that "they did it with a smile" ...They call it West bend Way; so you can imagine the rest
