Poor Work Culture

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Overtime if you want it.

Cons

No room for advancement. Annual raises small. Very poor work culture. Profit driven. Too much egotism. Don’t have mental or physical conditions if you want to work here. Abusive engineers. Doesn’t care about employees. Worst tuition reimbursement program I have ever seen. Insurance could be improved. Not an inclusive work environment. Too much office politics for such a small fab. Doesn’t care about worker safety. Upper management does not care about employees and is not shy about making it known.

Pros

Knowledgeable managers, fun technologies. They've managed to bring together great people, lots of work, consistent opportunities to earn extra money with evening and weekend work. Opportunities to travel countrywide. Important work in the healthcare system, research sites provide interesting applications for this technology.

Cons

Trainings on key product lines leave much to be desired, monthly case load is high, HR is as bad as everywhere else, benefits aren't as good as other offers in the US.
