      Good People , Fair pay, management could be better

      Senior mechanical engineer

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Happy with progression of career and pay. Good people and usually interesting work. Company allows flexible work schedule for busy families.

      Cons

      Weak to OK management, work can be schedule driven. Some long work days that could be avoided with better planning. Vision and where the company is going is unclear. The company could more diverse and invest in new technology to advance products.

      A place to gain experience and bail.

      Associate design engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Excellent place to learn and take on a significant amount of responsibility. Will work on interesting projects. People are very friendly and a joy to work with. Small team, can take on as much as you can handle.

      Cons

      Very low pay. Pay increases even for top performers are very limited. In my personal situation, the director of our site appealed to the VP of Finance for an increase and was turned down. Left the job solely because of pay... 30% increase at next job. If Textron acquires your company, expect a 4-5 year run before you're dumped. Horrible bureaucracy and excessive processes.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Very strong brands and customer focus. Committed to developing top talent. Opportunity to work with some very strong players with good credentials.

      Cons

      Easy to get lost in the expansive management structure. Not sure decisions were always clearly expressed to frontline. High stakes politics.
