Pros

Cost of living in the Rochester area is pretty low. This allows for your salary to go far. The suburbs of Rochester are very nice and family oriented. It is a good jumping off point for your career. To get a good idea of how the industry works.

Cons

The environment is on the depressing side. The same can be said of the workers there many of whom are jaded ex-Kodakers.. There is limited information sharing and few know how to really work together. Sometimes deadlines and expectations push the outcome more than they ought to. The location is pretty terrible verging on dangerous.

Pros

Got to learn and work with some good design, manufacturing, and quality engineers and with a handful of good people in other departments.

Cons

Lack of leadership. Top heavy and lack of accountability with management. Those in the weeds have more responsibility, are held to a higher accountability standard than management, and are wearing too many hats due to slacking and incompetent management. Poor NPI process planning - short cutting DVT, EVT, and PVT = poor production quality resulting in daily rework and RMA’s. Processes are cumbersome, manual, and outdated. Daily and constant fires to put out. CS and Sales is constantly in rotation due to the lack of management competency and support in many areas. Issues are not met with efficient and sustainable solutions. Managements idea of solutions are to add manual tasks and red tape to protect themselves but result in more audit errors towards their subordinates. Management hypocrisy - setting standards and expectations that they don’t even remotely follow themselves. Too much red tape. High turn over. No work life balance.
