Pros

Here’s a clean, to-the-point version suitable for a Glassdoor review: • Great place if you prefer a consistent 9 to 5 schedule • Stable company with very few layoffs • Laid-back environment typical of a manufacturing setting • Supportive and easy to work with colleagues

Cons

1. Compensation is ok 2. Location is a drawback, Sidney is a very small town; you’ll likely spend weekends in Columbus, Dayton, or Cincinnati. 3. Good learning curve for the first 1–2 years, but long-term growth opportunities are limited. 4. No bonus program or stock options. 5. Company does not offer visa sponsorship for international candidates. 6. After-hours calls with international teams.

Pros

Tuition assistance program, decent vacation and a somewhat flexible schedule. Work-life balance for technicians is actually really decent. Free coffee

Cons

Some teams are very good to work for however some teams I have worked in were extremely toxic. Since the IPO announcement, corporate have came down hard on benefits, raises, and employee appreciation. They call it a sacrifice we're all making but don't show how they're sacrificing. Old knowledge is pushed out and incentivized to retire early in favor of younger workforce. New hires are always paid more fresh out of high school than employees that have been working here for years. Health insurance is absurdly high premiums for sky high deductibles. DEI is practiced rigorously. We just had one of the highest layoffs we've ever had due to a slump in residential market sales as well as the IPO.
