      A good place to learn, grow and help customers

      Pros

      Everything is about the customer and their needs, which guides management in the right direction Integrity is valued by management if not always practiced Great co-workers Good work/life balance Encouraged to learn new technologies and methodologies

      Cons

      It is a conservative company and isn't willing to invest in development of new technologies and projects. New technology is aquired, not developed. So R&D does a lot of integration and maintenance. Middle management is comfortable and slow moving. They are more interested in process and maintaning the status quo instead of driving new initiatives or thinking stratigically. There are few or very restricted opportunities for advancement. (Management entrenched)

      Pros

      Employees are very nice and extremely hard working. It's amazing how lean the company runs. Lot's a long hours. Very mixed culturally.

      Cons

      Communication is lacking. It's on a need to know basis and no one seems to be on the need to know list. There's no management by walking around. Most managers sit in there offices with the door closed all day. Managers do communicate at their level but do not communicate to their staff outside the requisite weekly staff meeting. There is a fear factor amongst the rank and file.
