Pros

Because of the very small engineering groups, you get to work in a lot of areas. Some very dedicated team members, usually overshadowed by managers that just don't know anything.

Cons

High up business unit managers that aren't technically knowledgeable or have university education do not have the knowledge to hire the right people. The new engineering management group doesn't have a good technical leader or a good leader of people, very hostile towards employees, treating them very badly.

Pros

Great co-workers; smart people who are dedicated to doing good work. There is a general kindness and everyone seems willing to help each other.

Cons

The pay is low, and everyone seems stretched thin. There is little structure to ensure local leaders follow good practices. Evaluation of performance tends to be highly subjective. There seems to be very little management of the management.
