Pros

For the most part, coworkers are great to work with.

Cons

Some of the coworkers are idiots and when you point out that they should be doing it wrong, they get mad at you and say this is the way we always do it. The yearly review is a joke, they give raises below inflation. My responsibilities and knowledge has increased dramatically but still get 2% raises. They keep engineers below market value.

Pros

You will gain wide industry connections and insight into one of the now "market leading" testing companies. If you go against management and behave the way you should, you might receive many job offers from your clients.

Cons

You will use ancient equipment that breaks down all the time and be punished if you don't meet income quotas. You will be coaxed into doing testing that does not meet requirements of standards. You will have to deal with managers that are ignorant of what you do but, still feel the need to micromanage you. You will almost never receive a raise more than 2% /yr. This was the worst company that I've ever worked for. Nearly everyone at my location has been looking for another job. Every employee I know that has stood up for quality or safety issues has been let go. I tried to bring those issues to the top management and was let go two weeks later. The company is all about looking good for investors instead of insuring that our quality is beyond reproach.

Pros

My team is great and we get free food relatively often and we can usually purchase the supplies that we need.

Cons

Laughingly poor raises even though my location has been greatly surpassing expectations, laughingly poor bonuses, and I haven't seen a promotion outside of the business side in years.
