    How much is your soul worth?!

    Pros

    company passes along profits via occasional bonuses to all employees; competitive salary; descent health insurance and 401k.

    Cons

    They operate under Kaizen theology (which sounds good but really is a joke). The hierarchy is communistically governed. I feel as if I work in Communist Russia of years ago. They really ruin good employees and retain toxic ones. It's quite inbred and they REALLY don't welcome independent thinkers. They hire 80% new grads (easier to indoctrinate) in all departments...and then they leave after 2 year commitment is up, which is why they're so under staffed. If you can tolerate all of this and fly under the radar, you'll be fine.
