Pros

4 weeks paid vacation, you get "engineer" appended to your job title, even in sales, although I can assure you no engineering happens here - that's all done in Germany, there are only technicians at the Conyers location.

Cons

Terrible pay, expected to work 60+ hours per week including lots of Saturdays and Sundays. Senior management consists of a pushover who only shows up to sign checks and a man-child that fires everyone who disagrees with him. Almost all of the people working here are either so incompetent that they don't realize there is a problem, stuck in contractual/visa obligations, or just desperate for a job and already looking for a new one. Most of the experienced sales, service, and assembly people have left the company and at this point it's not really clear who is doing any actual work in this place. Unless changes are made, I would be surprised to hear this branch is still in business 5 years from now.

Pros

The company offers decent benefits, including healthcare and travel opportunities. The product line is technically solid, and some teams—especially at the engineering level—are composed of skilled, hard-working individuals. There’s also a fair amount of autonomy if you're self-motivated.

Cons

There is no formal training program in place. New hires are expected to learn on the fly, often by piecing together information from scattered sources or by shadowing overworked colleagues. There’s no consistent process or structure for how work is managed, and expectations are constantly shifting without clear communication or support. Most employees end up juggling multiple roles well outside their job description—serving simultaneously as engineers, customer service reps, project managers, and sales coordinators—with no recognition or additional compensation. This creates high burnout, low morale, and a general sense of chaos. Upper management lacks professionalism and emotional intelligence. Decision-making is often ego-driven, cliquish, and reactive instead of strategic. Concerns brought forward by employees—especially those from underrepresented backgrounds—are dismissed or ignored entirely. There are subtle patterns of favoritism and racial bias that leadership refuses to acknowledge or address. Work-life balance is non-existent. Employees are expected to be available at all times, including nights and weekends, with little appreciation or flexibility. There is no cultural value placed on employee well-being, and burnout is treated as the norm rather than a warning sign.
