Pros

Well known, global company with very high quality products. Provide excellent training on products. Friendly culture across all levels.

Cons

This is a German company, and all decisions take place in HQ. Do not have a clear understanding of what they want to focus on. Electronics, Device Connectors, Networking, or Solar products. They also don't have a clear channel strategy, and do a lot of business direct rather than through distribution, especially in Europe.
