Good & Bad

Pros

9/80 work schedule is a huge plus which gives you every other Friday off. Medical insurance options are above average although starting in 2015 it may be more inline with the market. 401k match is pretty good. Most of the engineering areas are generally low stress but not all. Great co-workers and bosses.

Cons

The company is very dis-functional and resistant to change. When a functional problem has to be addressed it is done by crushing the engineers at the bottom with more burdens. Communication from the top to the bottom of the company remains terrible despite survey after survey over the years indicating this. The burden of process and bureaucracy stifle innovation and make it difficult to get things done.... very frustrating. The current business outlook in this industry is poor. Management has clamped down hard on promotions and advancement as the company structure is very top heavy. Flex time is not all that flexible.

Pros

Amazing benefits with great pay.

Cons

Older workforce that needs to retire because they are lazy and ruin the company's chances of being competitive. Absolutely no job security. Lay off after lay off after lay off.

Pros

I don't have anything positive to contribute at this time.

Cons

No Severance; Very little notification when being laid off--employees are gived 2 weeks notice and have to work those final days; Employees that contributed 75% of the work being done were cut, while those who remained were barely qualified to do their jobs; Little to no communication from upper management; Good Old Boys Club in Ful Force -- Not supportive of Working Mothers!
