Pros

Hardly any, unless you KNOW someone (in which if you are related to someone) or kiss ass to higher management will you succeed in this company.

Cons

There are so many things that I can say about this company but I'm going to sum it up for anyone out there looking for a career. Management will put you down as if you can find another company like ASC (FALSE). They will brain wash to believe anything, things as change rules are always broken they make up rules as they go. HR favors supervisors (FLIRTING, BETTING ON GAMES, CHATTING), you will see it for yourself, NOISES company I know, Women be careful what you wear, OWNER of the Company Gudrun Mason will stare at you up and down (NO SHAME), Dave Mason talks to you like your no one, he knows best and that's that he makes no mistakes (FALSE). Most of the Engineers are lazy and will do anything to make himself look like the victim. Safety was just added (2012 I believe) so beware Field regulations are still not up to date. Some production workers are asked to travel last minute or even during holidays (NO MONEY IS WORTH LOSING YOUR FAMILY) they have caused a lot of break ups and cheating husbands caught during field work. IF YOU ARE SINGLE THEN ASC IS PERFECT FOR YOU! that's the truth if you have family it will not work in your favor. They may give you small raises like 10 cents just to shut you up until next year. Shipments are always late, customers complain on a daily basis, field personnel always missing drawings. They also have once a week meeting to talk about all the bad things everyone does during working hours. ALL supervisors are noisy there are no secrets no privacy. ASC STANDS FOR ALWAYS SOMETHING CHANGING.

We are surprised that someone who worked at our company for more than 3 years disliked the experience as much as this employee says he/she did. They certainly didn't voice their concerns prior to their leaving/termination. ASC is a world-leader in autoclave and oven manufacturing and the vast majority of our employees rise to the demands of the job and our customers, and appreciate the great opportunity to learn and grow in an increasingly competitive environment. We expect a lot from our employees, and in turn they rightfully expect a lot out of ASC. We pay well and are focused not only on safety, quality, and customer satisfaction, but also on overall employee satisfaction. Those employees who are unable to succeed in such a high-paced and competitive work environment should probably not work for ASC. That appears to be the case with this reviewer. We hope you find a company that's a better fit for you.

Thanks for the review. You are correct that we have lots of work, and it's also true that sometimes that work load can add stress to your day. Sorry about that. We are continuing to take steps to improve the work efforts so that they occur with fewer roadblocks. Hopefully that will make your day less stressful in the future. As for the investment opportunities, ASC is privately held and as such does not issue stock or options to employees.

Pros

Decent starter job for controls engineer

Cons

Management will very rarely have your back as the dollar sign is gods word. Field work sounds exciting at first but will ship you out on back to back multi-month jobs without breaks. There are snakes in the other departments that will try to bring you down to bring themselves up. Benefits arent great either and judge you for taking sick days and vacation time.
