Pros

A very slow moving industry is now now very dynamic creating a lot of opportunity to learn. Great place to get training. 1st level management on down are great people to work with.

Cons

Good old boy network controls this company. The industry is going through dramatic changes and because all the management has been with company for 25+ years they do not know how to adapt. Very slow to deliver new products to keep up with the changes in the industry. As stated by another reviewer - this company is full of B and C players. "A" players leave for more money or to get away from stifeling control by old school managment. Osram Sylvania is dying a slow death. The industry is no longer dominated by 3 major companies. They are struggling to compete with the hundreds of new LED companies that are not old school brick and mortar manufacturers.

Pros

Benefits and location are the only pros to working here

Cons

Very toxic environment, almost no opportunities for raises or growth despite what they tell you. They lied about a lot of things I asked about when I interviewed for the position.
