Pros

None any longer. Used to be a great company until the current CEO and his cronies obtained power.

Cons

In the past this was a great place to work. No longer. Executive Team HATES the people, area, and the company culture and could care less that these things are what made the company GREAT at one time. Read the other negative reviews, they hit the nail on the head regarding management capabilities, moving up via who knows what criteria, rating systems that create internal competition against your own team and peers, below scale pay, benefits that are no longer best in class. In some business areas, expectations of working 70-80 hour weeks. People are now CATTLE and the executive team has created this atmosphere on purpose.

Pros

Friendly, helpful colleagues. Vast variety of opportunities for engineers, especially younger ones. Actively supporting the communities where we live and work. Recent changes in management have restored positive outlook.

Cons

A lot of eggs are in the circular-economy basket rather than having the risk more evenly distributed among our product streams. We've lost a lot of talent recently to other businesses, partly because of unhappiness with former management but partly because of pay. Annual pay increases exist but have not even come close to keeping up with inflation.
