Pros

Competitive pay that HR takes seriously. They constantly review in order to keep up with market trends. Local HR Manager that is equally dedicated to our success. Management from the highest levels who really care. They make an effort to stop in on us, come to our labs and offices, and really join in with the needs of the team. Amazing innovations in a global market. Fast paced, exciting, lots of work in process and in queue.

Cons

No real cons. Definitely how you perceive the environment. Fast paced, exciting, lots of work in process and in queue.

Pros

Interesting work and Good Benefits.

Cons

Location for some engineering positions is cedar rapids iowa. Expect cold, nasty winters and flooding, high winds or tornadoes throught the year. Very unsafe driving conditions over winter if you need to commute even a short distance. For an iowa town, crime in the area is respectable. Local, state, county, and federal government and law enforcement in the area have an important role in this area, and make a definite impact on the community and in the news. The company has strong specialized technical talent in train control, software, test, project management, and systems engineering. Most of the staff are very experienced well rounded healthy people. However, there is a psychopath (yes, a psychopath) in a management position on one end of the building that the company does not reign in. Screaming and crying are often heard through a closed door on that end of the building. Utter silence is fairly prevalent througout that area otherwise.
