      It's a good place to start with someone without experience.

      Pros

      Laid back, management leaves you alone for the most part, you can listen to music with headphones, fun work.

      Cons

      Upper management doesn't seem to care that people leave the company and so most people don't get paid what they should be getting paid. It's hard to move up the chain and it's even harder to substantially increase your wages.

      Not a viable long term option for new college grad.

      Pros

      Latest and greatest technology. Company has deep wallets to invest in new equipment. Still going through growing pains which makes it easy to make a difference.

      Cons

      Understaffed. Yearly raises will leave you unsatisfied. Will recruit from outside sources and give out higher salaries and positions rather than promote and develop from within. Managers are managers, not leaders. No accountability.

      Pros

      The wage seems to be decent. The benefits seem to be pretty good as well. Working with some great people but it pretty much stops there.

      Cons

      Been here for almost 4 years, have been working above the level that I am currently at, have been passed over for promotion twice. Have been forced to change shifts twice in the time I've been here due to business needs and because they needed someone experienced to move over, yet being passed over for said promotions. Big disconnect between engineering and technicians. Engineers responsible for the tools barely know how the tool works and have no practical experience with them, but believe that is to no fault of theirs and due to a lack of training.
