Pros

Flexible work arrangements if you don't work in Operations department, however it still depends highly on your superior.

Cons

Very messy system -- new management is trying to implement systems which might not be suitable for optics industry. Too many people without optics background are making decisions, sometimes not the best decisions. Also, quality department is more like a sales department with no real work being done. Management prefers workers who just follow instructions and can speak well.

Pros

Half day Fridays - although the American owners don't like this, so this will probably end

Cons

Although advertised - Company is most certainly NOT employee focused. Does NOT truly value hard work and dedication. Does NOT support career development as advertised and then promised. Total lack of communication throughout the company. Although advertised and continually promised - No training or support of further education/qualifications. Old school management- complain about workloads but refuse to delegate and choose to withhold information - feel threatened by new blood No protection for employees - Management, HR, Legal team and union reps all protect each other to cover incompetencies and rule breaking No real opportunities to progress as most departments are very small - would rather advertise jobs than train capable staff Aged working environment. No longer a Christmas shut-down. Never worked in a place where morale is so low caused by a lack of trust in management, and collusion amongst those you would expect to approach when raising an issue or concern.
