Pros

Most employees are polite and helpful, benefits are good

Cons

No work life balance, long hours, in constant fire drill mode, there is little or no training, you are on you own. Management constantly berates you. No team effort, very disappointed, company drives you to burn out mode, looking to get out

High white collar turnover in U.S. says it all.

Pros

Reasonable career start point to gain experience for future opportunities outside company.

Cons

Large employee turnover in U.S. operations. New European management team making questionable decisions with little communication to non European operations. $100M employee embezzlement in Korea reflection of incompetent management. Push by major investors to break company up into more manageable units probably best for employees & investors.

Pros

A lot of hands on experience. Everybody is very friendly and eager to help

Cons

Work hours are a bit extreme. May not be true, but it seems the expectation from management is a 10 hour minimum work day.
