Pros

There are no good reasons to work at telephonics. It is a toxic environment and will turn you into a nasty back stabbing person so stay away. The management philosophy is to fire people in a humiliating way not because you did something wrong but because they can't meet their payroll or pay their vendors.

Cons

Many cons to working at telephonics. If you get recently hired you will be the first to be fired because of their first in first out policy. They will make you miserable so you either quit (which they prefer) or you shut down so they can fire you for cause. I have countless examples of good knowledgeable hard working people being fired in a public humiliating way. On layoff day they call your name over the PA system and everyone knows. There are internal gangs that see to it you get in arguments so they can make a case to HR for you to be fired. Stay away from telephonic. Their want ads are completely phony because they want to give the perception they are doing well. And the good people are leaving in droves some out of fear others out of good sense about a bad company.

Pros

TTM bonus plan is very good.

Cons

Middle manager calls for multiple meetings per week with no hard stop. These are unproductive. Manager also does not give autonomy and will question your work constantly. Again this is unproductive. Manager also calls you late at night (10pm). Work from home policy is not universal. This should be standardized without showing favoritism. Vacation and sick time are separate and less than most companies.
