Pros

Good pay, sub-par PTO, high turnover

Cons

Frequent layoffs (survived 8 in 13 years), no HR support. High turnover rates, expected OT for salary positions, minimal bonuses for exceeding expectations, reviews of the best employees have small financial gains. Very top-heavy management with more directors, VPs, and $250k salary employees than actual employees

Pros

The work is meaningful and the processes involved make you think. Lots of very experienced and knowledgeable co-workers, which made learning on the job engaging.

Cons

Not enough people to provide support in all areas if someone is sick or has the day off. Communication issues arose between different groups such as engineering and production when tight deadlines need to be met.
