Bad.....and getting worse.

Pros

Nothing really at the moment. Morale is shot, people are overworked and underappreciated.

Cons

Poor work life balance. Management is highly demanding and deadlines are unreasonable. Blame is passed to the lower echelon instead of where it should be. Extremely high turnover. We have had 2 rounds of layoffs in the past 6 months. People are so stressed out and overworked that someone (seemingly) quits weekly. Morale is lower than low. People are running scared and the company has shown not to care...work more ! Work harder ! Bonuses are nonexistent, and pay increases are subjective. Management pets get rewarded while the real workhorses are shafted.

Pros

Co-workers were good people and worked hard at their jobs.

Cons

Leadership lack forward thinking and poorly planned for the future. Which resulted in losing competitiveness and low sales. Which directly impacted employees with lay-offs. Leadership did not take any responsible for the performance.

Pros

Great market position historically. Products of high caliber generally. Some really good people work there.

Cons

Parent company UTC continues to be a huge negative for this company. Outsourcing without thinking, Layoffs mandated are too deep.
