Pros

Worked here for 15 years, saw the morale of the employees go down hill every year. When your job is always on the line, it is hard to enjoy it. Saw many good workers get RA'd year after year. After years of layoffs, they are getting rid of the best ones, and, wonder how much longer this company will be around. Upper management doesn't have a clue.

Cons

Treat your U.S. based employees better.
