Pros

No no no no no

Cons

"Training" consisted of a verbal brain dump from one person to another. A significant amount of information was not documented for reference, while the documented information was often out of date. In most instances, new hires didn't get an opportunity to practice a newly "learned" skill before they were responsible for executing it. New hires were assigned to shifts without supervisors, and had no way to contact anyone with experience should a question or problem arise. Management asked for feedback and suggestions, and often agreed to make changes, but then repeatedly didn't carry through. The persons who were promoted were the ones who generated the largest amount of completed work regardless of accuracy, even though we were told that quality was more important than quantity. All of these issues created a very tense, difficult environment in which to work.

Pros

- Education benefits (but access/support depends on your manager) - Flexible workplace (work hours/wfh) - Diverse workforce.

Cons

- Does not support employee promotions. Very difficult to get promoted if you are not an engineer. - Low pay, salary increases depend on manager. For the past couple years, most employees did not even receive adjustment for inflation. - Constantly loses top talent because management is unwilling to invest to keep good employees.
