Pros

Exciting work with new products on a regular basis. Innovative products! Nice coworkers and lower management. Pretty good benefits. Decent severance pay when they terminate you.

Cons

They have zero commitment to keeping employees employed. Will fire you even if the facility is busy and is making money - you don't see it coming so will never feel comfortable buying a new car or paying for home maintenance - you need to keep that savings account as high as possible. I saw two massive layoffs while employed. Management doesn't bother replacing those that are let go - they just make those that still have a job work longer hours or the work doesn't get done. Human Resources (HR) dept has a policy that you are not to contact them directly as the company has a website you can visit and if all else fails you can email a general HR account to get your personal questions answered.

Pros

There really isn't anything good I can say they lied since he beginning dos not keep there promise .. It was great in the beginning when we had our first supervisor and ones he left everything went down hill..

Cons

A lot of drama and hate with the older people.. And the manager did not pay attention he didn't care and let people do whatever they wanted be late all the time .. Not professional at all!

Pros

Not sure since Management seemed to be very hush about a lot of things. C level, VP and some senior managers received bonus while company told employees no profit this year. Being a VP is a bonus here.

Cons

A former CEO lied, stole and pocketed all the employees potential bonuses. This was during an acquisition. IT Team members read and spy on accounts of certain people.
