Pros

Free nuts in the kitchen. Convenient location near mass transit.

Cons

Misrepresentation of roles, responsibilities and upward mobility (good people often enticed to leave stable jobs relying on misrepresentations) Inexperienced, arrogant CEO in China. Vision for company seems to change every other month. Inexperienced, incompetent and/or unstable management in many departments (not all, but most). Complete lack of accountability of management. Understaffed at every level. Politics pervasive at every level. Constant employee turnover. Lack of job security. Horrible employee morale here. Quarterly (seriously) reviews for employees (except anyone in a management role, they have carte blanche). Incredibly cheap (how about bringing in lunch for mandatory all-hands meetings once in a while?)

Good People, Bad Work Environment

Pros

Pros: It's a paycheck. Very good health benefits. Great people, very close-knit workers. The people are what make this place.

Cons

Cons: Extremely political upper management filters down into attitudes of operation-level workers. Lack of job security. Deliberately poor and evasive company communication. Suntech has experienced enough shake-ups in the last year to make even a native Californian nervous. Just a look at the news shows heavy lay-offs, a scandal or two, and the removal of top-level management. It all contributes to a strong 'abandon ship' mentality.

Pros

A paycheck is the only benefit afforded.

Cons

almost 90% employee turnover annually at all levels including senior most positions. A China parent with no interest in developing the Americas organization. it is simply a channel stuffing operation with no senior level ownership. Evenings and weekends are expected due to time differences with China parent and no consideration due to perception of Americas employees being overpaid compared to China based employees.
