Pros

You will be working for a contract manufacturer, with a lot of corporate influence on the bottom line, you can look forward to working nights, week ends and crazy schedules.

Cons

The leadership team is built on failures and rejects from GE, and the directive is to do more with less, your job title/responsibilities will change frequently with out notice , you will be required to be crossed trained in other departments because they plan on future lay offs and want half a- - trained people to be some what capable to perform the job. Bring every hat you own because you will be required to wear them, especially in the Saint Petersburg site, if you dont have the hat required for the day one will be provided to you.

Pros

The team is incredibly welcoming, knowledgeable, and supportive, which has made it easy to learn and feel comfortable asking questions. There is a strong focus on training and collaboration, helping me feel safe, well prepared, and confident in my role. I also appreciate the benefits, which support a good work-life balance.

Cons

One area for improvement is the flexibility for new employees regarding remote work hours.

Pros

Adequate amount of PTO and suitable medical benefits and 401K. Co-workers were helpful and good resources when needed.

Cons

Difficult to receive promotions, as site GM, HR, and Global have to approve. No/very small annual increases. Departments need to hire additional support; again, difficult to get management and global to approve, thus a lot of turnover. Site directors/managers had conflicts between departments. Some would intentionally undermine other department heads if it suited their interest. Two directors have personal relationship, which seems to be conflict of interest.
