Pros

Easy interview process, and the paychecks come on time.

Cons

Celestica is a company that seems to survive on sheer momentum. Their IT policies are needlessly draconian, their understanding of the businesses they acquire is laughably inadequate, and the infighting between parallel groups is shameful. The icing on the cake is how they will lie outright on email threads or conference calls with their customer's c-suite persons to cover for their own mismanagement and incompetence.

Retains Known & Reported Unscrupulous Employees

Business Outlook

Pros

People know how to get things done: they abhor and avoid red tape when possible. Very scrappy. There's a handful of open and honest managers who know how to ask the right questions and move things forward. Lots of flexibility with employee time and work schedule.

Cons

Fixed mindset with many: Lots of old school people still stuck in their ways: not open to change or just ignore new process or tools. Many been there 25-30 years. A fairly large share of bullshitters who slip their way through with customers in hiding critical information. Managers who have abusive behaviour just get moved around and are not disciplined.
