Pros

Plenty of openings, but that's due to the continuous head count reduction programs.

Cons

Lack of respect for their employees. Recently departed Pres. of Life Sciences wanted to cure cancer, as a "tool company"??? Same Caliper Sales Management in place, probably more changes after Q2 Earnings Report.
