Formerly, a stable work environment.

Cut throat management of the Engineering department. Used Covid to push benefit cuts and layoffs related to pour business development. Retains clients who push for salary cuts, while dropping clients that want quality work with competitive salaries. Beware if you live in a state that doesn't protect unpaid vacation upon dismissal.
