Pros

There is a new CEO and lots of changes coming. Having a leader that knows the industry and the true potential is exciting. The new CEO and leadership team he is promoting or brought with him are making a huge difference. There is now visible growth and a bright future. It is exciting to finally have someone lead that knows we can become a Tier 1 player! Get on board NOW!!

Cons

They have made a lot of changes in the past year, mostly for the better, but so many changes can be scary if not communicated.

Thank you for your input and advice During our recent HR Summit and Executive Strategy session, we are addressing concerns as they relate to retention. Our goal for 2014 is to implement a new retention policy/plan, some of which has been set in motion, employee training, salary reviews/increases, and employee appreciation events. We have set several goals and understand retaining our top talent will be key to our future.

Pros

Even with an economic crisis looming, from the surface, SMTC appears to e stable with no obivous signs of future lay-offs.

Cons

Little to no investment in the Markham facility, which results in a struggle to remain competitive.
