      Pros

      reasonable reputation in market place but this is being diminished some great people who care, are competent and are hard working

      Cons

      the most senior management, Calhoun especially, are out of touch with the realities of this business and industry. They seem only focused on flipping the company and making as much as possible for themselves. I mean, really, did Dave really need another sign-on bonus? And one that was $3 million! Come on!

      Pros

      Prior to the relentless off-shoring of jobs, as part of the private equity purchase, NMR was a decent employer for the Tampa area. The salary was fair and the people were excellent colleagues. The facility in Oldsmar was a great place to work.

      Cons

      Continued layoffs and the overall atmosphere of distrust and resentment, coupled with the knowledge that management is just as concerned with losing their jobs as are the rank and file, and are prone to panic at upsetting their bosses. It has digressed into 'it's a job' rather than a destination, and a number of employees have opted to depart rather than wait for the inevitable axe to fall.
