      Pros

      Not much these days...unless you like drinking lots of Kool-Aid.

      Cons

      As the margins shrink and the stock price drops, the internal rhetoric spikes.

      Pros

      It’s a 40 year old catalog company that makes test parts, like Radio shack. New logo and name, but, mostly for image and marketing. It’s not even updated on this site and the ceo is outdated. HR does not know or care about it. Big campus north of town but it’s mostly empty and surrounded by a fence.

      Cons

      Managers have been here comfortably for most of their career. Mine did not know how to motivate or inspire, so he controlled and micro managed instead. If you are a US worker that has not yet been replaced with a cheaper worker in Costa Rica or Hungary, just wait. Almost everyone in my meetings speaks English as a second language. People complain about low salaries don’t understand pay reflects the market value of the company. If it’s easy to hire someone for low salary, they will do it. It’s all about low cost here.
