Yearly & merit increase was frozen for most employees because US in recession. Only the management team got pay increases irrespective of the recession!! Very demotivating. Lot of politics in the company!!

Pros

I think overall there is a sense of family within the work group. People are helpful, and I have not found it to be a cut throat place to work. People support jobs well done and encourage areas of growth.

Cons

Sometimes management is a little slow to make decisions, and I agree with the previous review that decisions are sometimes reactive as opposed to proactive. I also think that they need to pay closer attention to the opinions of those closer to the process as they are the experts.
