Pros

Employees are nice people. Landscape is pretty. Lunchroom is nice. Health insurance is good. I actually liked going to work everyday until all the changes started.

Cons

Company is micromanaged. It's an uncomfortable work environment. I felt I had to leave. I'm a good hard worker. I will go above and beyond what is expected of me. Nobody here noticed that. If they cannot trust me to do my job that's their loss.

Pros

- Location - Colleagues with the exception of majority of management - Benefits package (healthcare specifically)

Cons

Previous reviews were written by a manager within Rochester to throw prospects off. Do not believe the hype and take a job in sales at this company. It is negative from the top down. Behind closed doors, the management team is catty, negative, and weak. The strategy changes from day to day. They prey upon employees - you will be overworked, and underpaid but a raise/promotion will be dangled in front of you for years. Most sales people are beaten down, no one actually enjoys their job. The turn over is extremely high, they cannot keep good people because they are set up to fail. Inexperienced management team is the opposite of motivating and terrible leaders. I've never been a part of a more poorly managed company or negative/political environment in my career. The decision to move on was one of the best I've made. Don't believe the next few reviews Rochester Electronics management will write to try to salvage their ratings.

Rochester Electronics Response

Dear Former Employee, Our leaders are continually developing and collaborating and we could not be more delighted to share our compensation initiatives to build structure and competitiveness around industry market data. So many great things happening at Rochester Electronics and such an exciting time to be part of this successfully growing business. We are terribly disappointed to hear of your dissatisfaction and quite frankly are a bit perplexed. We do not employ a Recruiting Manager nor have any knowledge of this type of activity taking place to one of our employees. Perhaps you were a temporary employee working for us and were advised of an assignment end in advance? We always want to learn more and welcome you to contact any member of the Human Resources Team to include me personally at Dina.Miller@rocelec.com or 978-462-9332. Warm Regards, Dina Miller Manager, Human Resources
