Pros

Micro Electronics is a dynamic, fast paced company. A work place where you are allowed to express your creativity, a place where you are given the freedom to explore opportunist approaches to expanding and growing the business, a place that puts the customer before everything else.

Cons

Many times there is a lack of teamwork between departments. Often one departments objectives can be implemented without consideration of the impact to the entire organizational structure. A lack of effective cross departmental communication fosters these conflicts, many times the organization is moving so fast the communication issues are more a lack of time than consideration.
