Pros

Everyone is happy or at least content about their job. Most teams I've seen get along with eachother very well and the environment is not uptight at all, which is perhaps an obvious side-product of the flat company organization. For career development, this is a good place to be for material and industrial process engineers and their are a huge variety of products to work on. All the facilities are quite nice as well.

Cons

Delaware is not the most interesting location. Salaries are not exceptional, but you also have a lot of freedom in how much work you take on.

Struggles to stay global AND efficient'; It can be a difficult adjustment for new associates with a lot of experience in typical "command and control" companies.
