Pros

Plenty of freedom, the company has a large market share with the Cyrel Digital Imaging products.

Cons

Field individuals can be alone with little support and documentation is not ISO certified nor shared within the organization. Management does not encourage open communication and chain of command is an after thought. The Danaher and Esko exchange needs vast improvement. A do as I say not as do style of corporate culture is prevalent.

Pros

They do pay well for some departments.

Cons

Declining business. The parent company expects more than they are capable of. No new products in almost ten years. they re-label software with new release, but theres no changes in it. the hardware has not changes in the same amount of time. Seven North American presidents in the last six years and three global presidents in the same amount of time. The last president let good people that had been with the company for more then ten years go just before Christmas last year to save spending. His growth plan was to cut, not sell.

Business Outlook

Pros

The company has many dedicated employees that have been with Esko for many years. Some are about to retire and have been there their entire career.

Cons

The company was acquired by Danaher a few years ago. It feels like there is a lot of pressure from the top to make changes to increase profits at all costs (to both employees and customers). Frequent hiring freezes limits the ability to replace employees that leave or get promoted, forcing the existing staff to take up the slack.
