Pros

Good location? Thats about it.

Cons

Salary is not competitive at all considering Seattle is one of the top 10 expensive cities in US, No employee development -they do have a form to fill out for employee development needs but no follow up, no consideration at all, no external training, Very poor top to bottom communication- you will be working on a project but management had already decided to drop the project and u had no clue for weeks or even months!, The first thing management does is lie to their employees about the state of bussiness when things are slow, The second step they take is move your attention to the future and show brighter prospects in the coming years and assure employees that they will not cut down on the work force AND the next week you come to learn that 10% of manufacturing workforce was cut down along with a handful of engineers in the design dept. All in all a very poor management style all the way to the top.

Pros

Work life balance is good and if you stay long enough you will get a pension.

Cons

Management are robotic and clueless, the culture is straight out of the 1950's, pay is far below national average, no upward mobility unless you want to be in management, no cost of living increase and 2.5% average pay increase every two years. I could keep going but I think my point is clear.
