Pros

The only 'good' thing around here is the pay. That is even pushing it. Oh, nice buildings as well.

Cons

To sum it up in one word: Management. This place is full of managers that are only looking out for themselves and will throw you to the wolves in a heart beat if it means they can get out of something. Facilities management has NO idea what is going on. They tell the technicians to cook the maintenance books to make it look like we did required maintenance but didn't because they couldn't get the parts or the resources. They put people on projects only to take the glory after completion and then tell you that you aren't working hard enough so you don't get any bonus or pay raise. They promise big change, but it only brings more troubles. New management come in all the time with no experience and want to put their mark on this place, they implement ridiculous ideas and when they fail (usually do) it's the techs fault because we didn't envision their grand plan. If you must work here, make sure you go into manufacturing. Don't work for Facilities!!!

Pros

Very supportive team and management to work with from the beginning. Many training classes need to be taken in moving forward to align with the company policies and technical procedures. Good benefits and competitive salary. Have a very positive plan for long term career and educational support tuition. The interview and hiring process are long but informative and responded promptly.

Cons

There are many training classes to take so it may put more stress on a new hire if you do not have a good plan.
