Richardson Electronics – “Change is the only permanence”

Pros

Work Life Balance
Decent benefits
OK salary compared to similar size companies and location
This is a pit stop if you dont know which career direction you want to take for couple of years.

Cons

Bunch of morons at the director level with no foresight to see technology as an enabler in the current bad economic condition
People who been here for the last 20+ years have been grandfathered in to their titles and have no real world experience except for very few.
Mom & pop shop type mentality and members of management don’t think they are answerable to share holders other than Chairman.
Internal politics and personnel agenda of a few is affecting the growth of this company.

Advice to Senior Management

Senior management should eliminate dead- wood and some of the directors and VP's who have been here more than 10 years.
Should bring in new blood and talent to revitalize the company
