Pros

Large multinational company with significant financial resources to move forward. The working levels of the company are filled with talented individuals that deserve better leadership.

Cons

Top heavy management in favor of hiring "new blood" from the outside, implying that their own development of people is insufficient. The policies of the company drive individual performance down to the lowest common denominator. Often they are written around the 1% or less of employees that might be an issue. This ensures that even high performers are treated with a lack of trust and diminished respect.

Pros

Good experence from your internships. Seems to be very into developing the talent that comes into Tyco Electronics. During intership will both give you work to highlight your skill set and therefore you will add to the company during your summer, while also stressing improvement of weakness when you need to imporve. There very little busy work (work that is the typical sterotype of intern work). The upper managemnet really tries to get the most of you during your summer there. Also the sturcue is very flat. During my short summer there I got to work with VP's daily and comtribute to meetings with the tresurar and meet the CFO.

Cons

While the internship pay was a great upswing from other job you have problly worked while in college, and is compedative with other companies the full time offer may be disaponiting. For all the training and exposuse they give there new workers, they really don't pay enough to get the highest level talent in the door. Cost of living in the area is high and it is helpful if you can live at home during your summer or even the first year or two if possiable. Other then the possiable pay disapointment, Tyco Electronics is a great company to start a carreer.

Pros

Not a small company with adequate pay and benefits, including medical, dental, mental, Rx plan, 401k, employee stock purchase plan, computer purchase plan, health club reimbursement, short and long term disability coverage, life insurance, travel insurance, accident insurance, discount buying club, reward and recognition, and bonus plan. Your workplace experience depends on which facility you work in - some are very good and challenging.

Cons

No pension plan. Organization is traditional: vertical not horizontal. Ideas and energy can be easily promoted OR stifled by management. Tyco Electronics is not monolithic - your workplace experience depends on which facility you work in - some are rather poor and boring.
