Pros

The have cash. They are hungry for new investments. They BUY cutting edge technology. If you are selling, this may be your place!

Cons

NO R&D. They don't design ANYTHING new! They buy companies, milk them until the technology is old, then cast them off. They are a "band of gypsies" with no particular goals in mind, other than surviving, and maintaining a stock value. They buy new companies with only immediate revenue in mind. NO investment in the future. This strategy appears to work, but it is not an exciting environment.

Pros

Flexible start time (6–8 AM) and ability to make up missed time. Supportive direct management and good work-life balance. Opportunity to learn a variety of manufacturing skills.

Cons

Compensation is not competitive with the current manufacturing market. Limited career growth and advancement opportunities for technicians. Skilled employees often need outside offers to receive meaningful pay adjustments. Random drug testing policy may be a drawback for some candidates.
