Pros

Unique global culture Exciting projects and technology Good people on local teams

Cons

CEO with zero emotional intelligence has entire leadership team disengaged Company failing because of incompetent management having no credibility with capital markets (growth targets based on CEO's ego not reality, this is why we are undervalued) Many of the company's top talent being fired, demoted or forced to relocate

Pros

- Exposure to large-scale manufacturing systems and cross-functional projects - Can build strong manufacturing and quality engineering experience quickly - Competitive pay and solid benefits for the area

Cons

Work-life balance can be inconsistent depending on department and production demands * Advancement opportunities may feel limited without moving into management or relocating * Communication and management consistency can vary between shifts/departments * Production pressure and changing priorities can create stress in quality-related roles * Some roles may require overtime or schedule flexibility that can be difficult for employees with family responsibilities * Recognition for process improvements and extra responsibilities may not always match workload expectations * Culture can feel more production-focused than employee-focused at times
