Business outlook
Pros
The company focuses on making cutting edge products, using the latest technology. First Quality is ethical in their business dealings. Aggressively chases efficiency and sustainability. Privately held, with a focus on long term growth rather than short term gains. Management is actively involved.
Cons
Weak development path for advancement. Staff has been cut to the absolute minimum in each role. You can feel isolated in your position with no mentor, so you are on your own, sink or swim. This can lead to employees feeling like management does not care, the truth is that there is very few layers and they are stretched so thin they don't have time to address employee issues.
