Pros

They work with some really big and notable in companies, the projects are interesting. The coworkers there are a great source of knowledge and very friendly overall.

Cons

The culture of the company is bad. Not a lot a room for career growth, very hard to get promotions. Raises al and bonuses are pretty miniscule. Overall pay is pretty low for industry and what you have to do. Not a lot of time off, people seem to either be overloaded with work or your not sure what they do all day.

Floor production staff is awesome; office staff not so much. Average blah company.

Managers are poorly trained. Cheap salaries. Very poor work culture- ignores holidays, employee picnic/ get-togethers. Burdensome non-value work.

Pros

Met some good people while there that are still friends.

Cons

Extremely difficult to suggest changes and being taken seriously. Benchmark is stuck on its hiring process. Where a piece of paper is worth more than experience.
