Pros

-15 days PTO -Decent amount of vacation days -Small size - everyone matters

Cons

-Management shoots from the hip and constantly changes plans of action. - pay is very low, especially for living in charleston, sc. -You will be told that the sales team is more important than everyone else. -Germany is almost always on vacation and PTO while you are required to work at least 45 hours a week (and expected to work more). -It's a boys club. All of the sales force and most of upper level management are men. 1 man sexually harassed a worker and received a promotion a few months later. Most of the females are required to answer the phones in addition to their regular jobs ( it's a "team effort"). They finally added 1 man to this duty.

Pros

Plenty of training, Lots of travel,nice benefit package. Nice shiny facility. Phone, Laptop, all the required trinkets. Connecticut is beautiful in Autumn.

Cons

The high cost of their product is necessary to cover warranty claims and the cost of training the constant turnover of personnel. Below industry wages, Too much training (brainwashing-loss of identity), 100% travel with no regard for family needs, poorly developed products meaning the majority of service calls are to very angry threatening customers, lack of support for engineers in the field.

Pros

TRUMPF is a very cool company, and working there was an incredible experience. It's also a solid company, financially, that is managed in a fiscally-conservative manner. When I was there the leadership was strong, and there was an open-door policy.

Cons

When you work at TRUMPF, there is not much time for anything else in your life. You need to be "all in" in order to thrive there. That's not necessarily a "con," it's just reality. It depends on where you are in your life. This may or may not work for you. It worked for me well, for awhile, but then I had to move on.
