Pros

Really good people trying to keep the wheels on, the pay is on scale for this part of the country

Cons

The extremely burdensome quality policy keeps the company from being competitive in the product development and manufacturing arena. Too many chiefs, not enough people that actually try and move the ball forward. Too many sideline coaches that just throw wrenches all day long getting in the way of progress. Upper management has no clue where to steer the ship.

Pros

Stable company with broad global reach. Front office jobs not demanding, hybrid schedules and low expectations lead most to be 30-35 hr weeks.

Cons

At first this looks like a positive: you’ll notice that many employees have tenures of 15,20, 30 years. But that leads to a lot of group think and insular behaviors. They actually have a common statement among employees - “you’re not a Freudenberger unless you’ve been here 10 years.” Not exactly a welcoming statement to new employees. If you’d like to have your input and thoughts ignored for a decade, this is the place for you. Convinced they have great technologies, but in market terms, average technology at best. Horrific infighting between divisions. Management meetings resemble Klukluxclan meetings in terms of diversity. Pay scales below market, 401k match very weak
