Pros

Fair compensation, good employees trapped in a terrible work environment. Not much else can be described as a good place to work

Cons

Worst management team ever. Bad morale amongst employees, stuffy,outdated atmosphere, no recognition of holidays, no communication whatsoever amongst management and staff.

Pros

"Stable" Cool trucks Cool factory Reasonable work/life balance Good people (although completely disillusioned and unhappy) Reasonable benefits. I would say they were good before the recession, but were cut to reasonable.

Cons

Stifling culture - information management is bewildering Slow advancement, cloudy path up the chain IT is a joke. When they call themselves a "technology company," they are referring to the truck, not the network infrastructure, software, etc. Some people hear the word conservative and think that's unilaterally a good thing, but the flip side of that is they often do things long after their competitors, leaving them at a market disadvantage (I.e entering the China market.)
