Pros

Great products that customers have used for years of research.

Cons

Current management that came in has gutted the company leaving customers and faithful employees to be cast to the wayside. Very sad.

Pros

Leadership cares about employee well being, not just the work, and is looking to elevate employees to see them succeed. Respect for all individuals is a big part of Turner Designs. There is continual improvement in mindset to ensure enough consideration has been given for how we're viewed by our customers (external and internal). If you want to know how to treat others with respect, fairness, and equality then this is where you learn what growth really is, when working for Turner Designs.

Cons

We're a small group, looking to grow.

Pros

There's cool tech there, which is a legacy from the former company management.

Cons

If you're an hourly employee, you'll probably be fine. If you're a knowledge worker you won't be happy here. The six sigma implementation here is ill advised and overbearing. If you interview and there aren't any other tech professionals on the interview panel, ask why and keep prying. If they would pull back on the six sigma obsession and start to follow Silicon Valley standards for engineering work environments (come and go at will, no detailed time/task tracking, allow work from home, results over process paperwork), they could mitigate the pain and might be able to start designing new products again. If not then it's survival of the fittest, which in tech industry means being the most innovative.
