      Very toxic work culture

      Anonymous employee

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Very Few people understand the team work concept.

      Cons

      Leadership is not responsive to employee concerns, leading to low engagement. Lack of accountability and ownership across teams impacts performance. Workplace culture can be challenging, with unprofessional behavior at times. Support and work-life balance are inconsistent and heavily dependent on the manager.

      Pay is okay, but toxic environment and outdated management

      Front line manager

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The pay is okay (ish). PTO and other time off is pretty decent providing you have direct reports. Very intriguing product.

      Cons

      The company is extremely outdated in technology and managerial skills. If you have skill and experience, it will be wasted here. They have a 1980's dictatorship style of leading/managing. It is a revolving door for management. It is a very toxic environment in which you eventually believe is methodical. Because of the revolving door, your shift will change frequently and you will have to work many weekends and extended hours to cover the gaps. The HR dept and upper management are out of touch with family and work/life balance. If you have an ailment, you won't last there. If you are 50+ in age as a new hire, you are more likely just filling a gap temporarily. Most managers here are internal from the floor. They have knowledge of the components, but no managing skills. This is truly a "shoot from the hip" "day by day" company.
