Pros

Not the worst pay, we work less than half the year on shift work so that’s good. But that’s a lot of places.

Cons

Where to begin... Management. They don’t care about technicians. My MSM’s superior has no idea who else works under her. And it’s that way all the way to the top. Recently they hired a new msm for us and he’s more of a middle man. He doesn’t know how to manage people and relies solely on being his boss’ puppet. Bonuses are quarterly now, but they are minimal. Want a raise? Absolutely not! Your raise is based on a person 4 ranks above you that doesn’t know who you are or what you do, and most certainly doesn’t care. They’ll spread the budget evenly, even amongst the employees that are brought in at much higher pay levels and are being trained by junior people due to their lack of knowledge on anything. Interview was basically a conversation and not an interview. Micromanagement at its finest, with no willingness to change or listen to the people who are making the company the money.

Pros

Semiconductor business on East coast

Cons

Upper Management has no experience or practical knowledge of the industry and they continue to bring in people they know with even less knowledge. This is the reason the company cannot be successful and is in the position it's in now...one failure after another.

Pros

Good salary, decent benefits, nice location

Cons

Weak management who are NOT interested in the company except for themselves only. Old boys network. Rampant nepotism and favortism. Little direction!
