Pros

The pay is good and that's it!

Cons

Do not work at this company for any amount of time!! You will be treated like a 2nd class citizen!! You will be assigned a parking spot, if someone parks in your space then you are required to report this to human resources. If you chose not to then expect to get in trouble. There is plenty of parking available, it's just a way they can control you. If you smoke do not apply because you will not be hired. Human resources told me that it is highly recommended to not take off work for a child's doctors appointment and to have someone take my child to their doctors appointments. The attendance policy is 3 pages long and covers everything from coming in late, leaving early and taking the day off. You are allowed only so many occurrences (the reason does not matter). Human resources even told me that they set up the attendance policy to use it against the employees!!! Be prepared to give a detailed reason for your absent or coming in late or leaving early. Everyone that works in the office will take their lunch at 12pm and return at 1pm. If you leave late for lunch (the reason does not matter) you are required to return by 1pm. Do not expect to move your lunch around. It's 12pm and that's that. If you want a break then clock out. There are no paid breaks. The 2nd floor is for the executives, stay off that floor. You are beneath them. If you save your work on the computer system then use number 2 because you are once again beneath them. The executives use number 1. The people who work there stay quiet, act like robots, and scared that they will lose their job. There is no chit chatting. They are micro managers on everything. This is the worst job I have ever had in my life!!! They throw good pay at you and then expect to control your every move all day, treat you as a 2nd class citizen, and their tactics are abusive! I could go on and one but I hope that this will give you a vision of what working for this company is like. Stay far from their compound!!!

There is more bad than good here I'm afraid

Pros

Pay is actually not bad. Depending on your department you COULD have good coworkers. Place is ok aesthetically with nice offices; the place was recently remodeled. Major execs work on the second floor and others work on the first floor. Lunch is 1 hour for office people and shop workers get 30 minutes with 2 breaks.

Cons

The shop has a very bad turnover rate. Workers get terminated unjustly, laid off without warning, or leave because other companies offer better benefits. Tardiness DOES NOT go unnoticed even if you are one minute late. The next point cannot be stressed enough: the place is generally unfair to new workers who expect them to be experts from the get go. Upper engineering management is constantly on peoples back with ridiculous time demands. Even when work gets completed fast, it sits on the managers desk for days waiting to be looked over and approved. Organization is usually a constant issue. Projects sometimes have to come back to the drawing board because something was missed. People who have worked there for a long time are generally full of themselves and easily get annoyed. Since the place is so small, there is no room for advancement unless you get a raise. Place has been known to let people go, only to call them back later because they need help with demand. They are suppose to give training but it often doesn't happen. They just give no time to let people understand every aspect of the job, which in this industry, is usually meant to take as long as a year.

Get Rid of the Wall

Pros

The people here are disciplined, but it's mostly because of the fear of losing their job.

Cons

There is a big wall between the employees and management. The employees think that they'll lose their job if they speak against the management. So, they just put their head down and work. It is ruining the entire atmosphere of the workplace,
