Pros

They let me work over 6000 hours of un compensated overtime. They let me earn 13 patents should have been many more. They gave me the Harold Leviton Innovation award in 2011. I got to engineer and manage over 500 tooling projects and put all those products into production. Was the only person that worked for Leviton that could do product design for Injection molding, Die Casting and Sheet metal design as well as design all the production tooling to make these products. Got to spend $67,000 of my wages to purchase the design software I needed to do all this work, I sold a new truck of mine so I could purchase Mold Flow software to solve the Cat 6 spring problem. I solved this issue and this saved Leviton over 26,000,000 million dollars and still counting. I never failed to get the job done. Every personnel review I received I got exceeds expectations.

Cons

Despite what you read above they said they no longer need someone myself that can do all of that. No reason given. And thanks for that last bonus of $1000.00 after taxes this didn't even pay half of the support cost's for Solid Works.

Pros

Excellent Management Team. They recognize your strengths and work with you. As long as you are proactive you will be rewarded. Upper Management easy to talk to. Open door policy.

Cons

Employees rarely leave so it's a little hard to move up. Slow pay raise.

Pros

Lots of vacation so I took plenty of vacations

Cons

Salary felt too low for New York. Should be a remote job with availability to live anywhere
