      Pros

      Good leadership at the C-Level. Good benefits

      Cons

      Vice Presidents, Directors and Managers treat employees of color very poorly especially black employees! Most leaders are based in England and have employees working for them based in the US and India. If these employees are black, they are treated extra poorly. Also, managers allow other white members of their team to treat black members on the team very poorly. The white leaders in the US treat blacks and Indians poorly too. Very racist here.

      Pros

      If you like the small company atmosphere then the AZ Philadelphia site might be a good fit short term employment. It’s a great place for new undergraduates seeking industry experience. The training process is very robust and comprehensive. The employees (individual contributors) are great to work with. The average staffer is well versed in the overall process and are very willing to help train and teach new employees.

      Cons

      Due to the size of the site there is not room for growth. Promotions are typically based on overall popularity with HR and upper management (in that order) and not performance. Employees typically go above and beyond to meet corporate goals and fiscal year projections. Unfortunately, more often then non the accolades associated with these efforts are given to upper management and not the employees/individual contributors. Management/ people managers typically have little to no interaction on the daily manufacturing processes. This leads to knowledge gaps which subsequently increase lead times on troubling shooting and overall risk mitigation and change control efforts.
