Pros
Lanco has a strong team atmosphere. From the designers to the assembly floor, everyone is always willing to help. Since most projects are one-offs, there is always something new involved which keeps the work interesting.
Cons
It is a boom/bust cycle. The concepting group gets slammed, followed by a lot of orders which hammers the design engineers, which then slams the assembly floor. These pockets of industry purchasing are just part of the job and requires flexibility - sometimes meaning that you work completely outside of your department for a while.
