Pros

Landscaping, Business Model, and Benefits

Cons

Company is micro managed. Ownership is unaware of management’s behavior towards employees. Infrequent increases, incentives, or merit raises given. Incentives motivate sales reps, who are critical to drive top-line results. They withhold increases in hopes the employee will resign voluntarily. Management focused on personal financial gain. Long term employees unappreciated. Select employee's are favored.

Thank you for your feedback. We value it and take it with great importance. Rochester Electronics prides itself as an employee centric company, none more so than the global sales organization. In recent years, we have significantly expanded our sales operation across the Americas, EMEA, APAC and Japan. In addition, we have adopted a strong performance based culture which more closely rewards high individual performance coupled with exceptional teamwork, attitude and behavior, both in region and globally. It is disappointing you feel not to have fully benefited from this progress, we’d certainly welcome the opportunity to discuss the matter further should there be added detail not covered at your exit interview. Please feel free to contact Dina Miller in Human Resources in the strictest of confidence. Thanks again for your feedback, it is important to us.

Pros

- Supportive owners and a generally well-run company that takes care of its employees - Uncapped bonus structure - Good medical benefits and work life balance - Some genuinely good colleagues - Don't worry about how well/bad you perform; rewards/promotions/pay adjustments are definitely not based on these - A comfortable place for those planning for retirement or not focused on career growth. If you are seeking career progression, opportunities are limited unless you navigate internal politics wisely.

Cons

- Blatant double standards; at times it feels like a “cowboy town”. - Recognition can goes to undeserving individuals. More qualified individuals are often overlooked despite being more capable. - Unofficial authority can be abused by some from the “inner circle.” - Experience can vary depending on your gender - Certain toxic and petty leadership running the show; if you didn't feel it, you are part of it. - Micromanagement due to insecure leadership - Ambiguity at its peak; certain leadership is unclear what he/she wants and try to shrink away from making direct decisions so as to have a scapegoat. - Gaslighting and undermining your contributions is the culture in some places. - Meetings are not conducted in English at times; insensitive to those who doesn't understand native languages, not that leadership cares. - There will be times you are required to remind people to do their jobs (yes).
