Pros

Generally friendly atmosphere that is fairly laid back so long as one is doing their job in a timely fashion. Flexible when it comes to family matters and willing to let employees take time for their families.

Cons

Location for HQ is in a terrible building with frequent maintenance issues and terrible environmental control leading to terrible air quality in the building. Granted this is outside of the company's control, but something anyone who might work at their corporate HQ should be aware of. Advancement opportunities for non-technical workers on contracts feels limited.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. It is great to hear that you had a good team and PM. It’s unfortunate that you did not feel like you had support from Headquarters. We are constantly working on improving communication through email, newsletters, and teleconferences. Although remembering over 500 names of employees who work all across the world is a challenge, OBXtek is constantly trying to stay connected through communications, employee recognition programs, employee wellness challenges, employee events, and other initiatives. I am real interested in additional feedback and ask that you contact me directly at sharrington@obxtek.com. – Sharon Harrington, OBXtek’s Vice President, Human Resources
