Pros

Unlimited PTO (for my position, not all positions) Air conditioned and humidity controlled environment Good people work here, and are doing the best job they can

Cons

Corporate does not respect us. They delayed our merit raises by 3 months, but the CEO still made his 6 million (10% of revenue!) this year. There has been a hiring freeze, so when we lost a dozen engineers last summer, the rest of us had to pick up the slack.

Pros

Floor production staff is awesome; office staff not so much. Average blah company.

Cons

Managers are poorly trained. Cheap salaries. Very poor work culture- ignores holidays, employee picnic/ get-togethers. Burdensome non-value work.

Pros

Met some good people while there that are still friends.

Cons

Extremely difficult to suggest changes and being taken seriously. Benchmark is stuck on its hiring process. Where a piece of paper is worth more than experience.
