Pros

Good company to work for.

Cons

No longer as a business

Pros

The best company I've worked for so far. Great employee accommodations: awesome lunch room with free beverages and occasional treats, exercise room, super clean, excellent accommodating environment for work, lots of great employees, nice company outings and benefits, accommodating to employee schedules, decent freedom for initiatives, loved it there for the most part.

Cons

Some of the higher level bosses lack human qualities, disregard overall employees experience and contribution to the company, and pay too much attention to the wrong details...

Pros

Benefits were better than pay.

Cons

Lack of opportunities to move up in company.

Pros

The people I work with are incredible! The company creates lifesaving products. Food trucks come in frequently for lunch. Depending on what department are, you can move up really quick- mostly by being in the right place when someone resigns and they scramble to fill the open position.

Cons

Everything is done a certain way simply because that is what upper management wants- to the point of ridiculousness. Constant frustration working inter-departmentally. CEO is a micro-manager and treats employees like I have never experienced. You either get on board and do things that make no sense so you don't get chewed out, or you leave the company. Really high turn over, especially in the Marketing department.

Pros

The CEO and management believes in individual empowerment. The company is very strong financially. If you're hoping to blend into the background, this isn't the place for you (at least on the Engineering side). The company has shown steady growth that cannot be matched by any of its competitors, and there's no signs of that slowing down.

Cons

There are high expectations (is that really a con?), and you can plan on more than 40 hours per week

Pros

Good place to work. Liked the challenges given to me. Fast paced kept busy days flew by. People were great to work with. Listened to the manufacturing level and willingness to make changes where possible.

Cons

Keeping people to long that were not an asset to the company. Not advancing or recognizing qualified people soon enough allowing them to find other jobs elsewhere.

Pros

Great company to gain experience and get responsibility early on. Management does a good job of preparing you for the task at hand and then allowing you to take the lead in order to produce an outcome with a significant impact.

Cons

Not the most up-to-date or popular office setting to work in. It could be made "more fun" and enjoyable for employees which would have a positive impact on the company overall.

Pros

There are no pros, I just tolerated all the BS for they paychecks.

Cons

They don't value their employees. No room for advancement. They only promote their favorites and don't base it on people who are more qualified. HR has fits all the time. Management is poorly runned. They don't value their employees, you get treated like a robot. Management never listens to you, but when a higher up has a complaint, they are so quick to move on it. Leads are only out for themselves. They don't give raises on how well you work, they base your raise on the "teamwork". There is no teamwork, there're are only factions. We have no voice, they only want us to go on what they want. STAY AWAY from this place. High turnover rate.

Pros

Decent benefits, good health insurance

Cons

Low performance raises, no appreciation for home employees, promotions primarily external, underpaid, no incentive to work harder, understaffed, favoritism, nepotism, unqualified employees paid higher rate than employees with a track record of success, promotions not based on merit, no upward movement for production assemblers, upper management is clueless, violates regulations set by the company, most trainers are lazy and unfit, no recognition for hard work

Pros

Innovative products that you can truly stand behind. Multiple product launches every year so you always have something to sell.

Cons

Surprisingly I have no complaints. Mangers are great and very helpful. Company knows how to succeed and gives you all the resources needed to make you succeed as well.
