Pros

I've worked at Touch now for some time so I'm qualified to say it's a great place to work. We were recently acquired by Ossur, which means there will be a lot of opportunity on the horizon. The best part of working for Touch is that the products that we are developing are revolutionary and truly help people to improve their quality of life. Being a smaller organization, your voice is truly heard and your feedback and suggestions are regularly implemented and taken under consideration. You feel like your efforts are really making an impact. Additionally, senior leadership is very approachable. There's an "open door" policy so communicating with upper management and even the CEO is very easy for all employees, which is rare in my opinion. Overall, I would definitely recommend working here.

Cons

My experience here has been a very positive one so I don't have any "cons" to list.

Pros

-Benefits are ok. Not -It's nice to know you are doing a job that helps people. -The work has a cool factor to it

Cons

-This is a small company (~50 employees). I worked in the Newburgh office (<20 employees). Even with the few amount of people, we were flying blind. The inter-company, inter-departmental communication was terrible. -No incentives. No upward movement, wages do not reflect amount of skill needed for job, and raises are non existent. $15/hr does not cut it. -Employees are veiwed as expendables rather then investments. -Rampant micromanagement, manipulation, bullying, nepotism and emotionally abusive management which facilitates a stress filled, highly dysfunctional work environment. -HR ignores complaints and does not respect confidentiality. -Mandatory overtime without notice. -Very high turn over rate In my 5+ years ~20 Employees were hired and left (most due to the stress/ bullying from management) the Newburgh office. This does not include the cleaning house layoffs in the Ohio and UK. Summery: Imagine having your dream job where you get to work with all your friends doing something really interesting that helps people who need it. Now imagine this dream job is being run by the worst high school bully, pushing you to the edge every day. To the point where you having nervous breakdowns on the way to work. At some point the stress out weighs all the positives and you leave. Years later, you still have nightmares about the place. So much so, that after one of the stressful dreams you go on-line, find glassdoor and write a review about what you experienced. It's like that.
