Pros

Pay is the only thing management has right but it has to be high to get any sane person to stay more than a day!!!

Cons

Staff turnover is high, no one in the customer care team has been employed for more than a year. It's like being in a high school working at Zeiss. If you're not one of the cool kids then you can do nothing right, regardless of how good you are at the role. You will be bullied out by adults. There are more complaints at Zeiss than any other company I've known (and I've worked in bigger companies before). Leadership is poor, and they do not know the meaning of good service.

Pros

Per diem is nice, and the company car is ok

Cons

There is no ability to effect change; processes are so manual to keep people employed that should be let go, and the company is unwilling to listen to ideas of change. Also, there is no actual product quality, their so called Quality department does not deal with product quality at all, thus systems leaving the factory untested as a whole system or software releases being fully vetted for functionality. Their "Quality department" is only a CYA department to protect them from FDA audits, which quite frankly, could be called a Complaint Conversion Department. What is the point, other than titles, to call themselves Quality when nothing actually is fixed on the products and they are uninterested in end customer user experience or improving the actual product quality and sustainability.
