Pros

good co-workers, very casual dress code, good air conditioning, OK pay, FDS has the seed of a great company, unfortunately it's going nowhere with current management

Cons

Owner makes all decisions, but is never around because he travels most of the time, professional salaried employees must "clock in" daily as if laborers - only no overtime, owners insist engineers and professionals clean up on "Wipe Down Wednesdays", forced 25 hours weekly overtime without pay, bad quality reputation in the industry, no real benefits.

Pros

The employees work hard and most are very good at what they do. Most are there because they have to.

Cons

Omg I don't know where to begin. New management are lying to the employees and the corporation about the business financials. Can we say someone is cooking the books. Then there's what we call our poor sales. Then there's a person in charge of programming our CPUs. This person is so under qualified for the position this persons in. The CEO. Omg this guy is no leader. This guy can read a flow chart but that's about it. Anything else is way over his head. Oh I almost forgot. He's a pro at keeping his feet propped on his desk. This company will not move forward until corporate comes down and wipes out the upper management. I also want to say if you see any good comments on this site it was either management or HR trying there best to make the score better for this company. Look if you try to work here just understand your nothing but fresh meat for management and that's it Plus if your a current employee, forget about raises or bonuses. Any review you get will be bad. They have to say your a horrible employee because there not going to give a raise. Two reasons for this. First the company isn't making money. Second they don't care. Look just avoid this company like the plague. Unless your a zombie don't bother.
