Pros

Company has great product and customer base, employees are great and can form real friendships outside the cube. Great place to get experience and then move out.

Cons

With all the acquisitions that Kontron has made, they've brought a lot of people from the outside that have their own ways and place them in management positions and that conflicts with the old culture of Kontron. German HQ are exerting to much control over the company and not letting the US division run themselves. They also like to hire people with HS diplomas for positions that require College education in order to pay them a lower salary but still expect the same output as someone with a college education.

Pros

Good people. When times are good, its relaxed

Cons

Perpetually understaffed and overburdened. Would rather win now projects than finish the ones they've started. Your pay will not keep up with inflation
