Pros

During production rushes the overtime is great. Unfortunately starting wages are low and raises havent been given in about 10 years!

Cons

Low starting wage, COLA raises only, low morale throughout the company, not all managers are qualified to manage, frequent in-fighting between managers, no loyalty to its employees, false promises are used as currency.

A big rickety old roller coaster of high tech going loose off the tracks

Business outlook

Pros

High Tech company with lots of smart people, and interesting technology. Large global install base from years past when they were a market leader. Very nice HQ facility to work in, in a desirable geographic area.

Cons

Company made poor decisions relative to market 10 yrs ago and lost most of market share. Many layoffs have bred a workplace dominated by a clique-culture of the long-timers protecting their jobs at the expense of new hires trying to integrate. Very ineffective at Product management / re-capturing market share Company has way too many VPs for its size. Dysfunctional Top management - They seem content to look for a buyout or else ride the business into the ground.
