Banner Engineering Response
8y
We appreciate your taking the time to share your thoughts on Banner, and would like to take this opportunity to respond. Your comments were made in Q1 2015, and it was your opinion that at that time our technical capabilities were not as strong as they could be. We highly disagree. Over the decades—and certainly in 2015--our teams of select engineers, coupled with our advanced technology and great investment in R&D (for example, advanced R&D in ASICS, digital signal processing, electronics, LIDAR, 3D Imaging, and advanced manufacturing systems), has enabled us to effectively conceive, develop, engineer, manufacture and bring myriad new products to market…and we’ve grown even stronger since your time with us. Our new R&D facility, which is slated to open in Q3 2018, will more than double the amount of space allocated for R&D, and will give us state-of-art facilities for our growing R&D team. We’ve also significantly expanded our product portfolio in the last three years, including higher performance measurement and inspection sensors, and many wireless and IIOT-related smart products. We continue to invest in and grow our technical teams by inviting highly-talented engineers to join Banner, all to meet the growing demand for our products. As a leader in this very technical industry, it’s only through the strength and dedication of our engineering and support teams that we’ve been able to continue our growth, year-after-year.

Pros

-Air conditioned building. -Computer chairs to sit in during work.

Cons

-Upper management and above is abysmal. I had 6 managers over the course of 3 years of working there. "Organizational change ups", firings and just walking out, seem to happen routinely due to the rot at the top. -Management outright lied about co-workers and my performance in our yearly reviews as an excuse to deem our positions as obsolete and then the company laid us off. -Lots of detrimental policies for lower level employees including the "pay differentials" and will gladly underpay mid level employees while consistently stacking more responsibilities on you. -Non-first shift employees are consistently ignored and disregarded despite most of them having longer tenure then the revolving door of employees on 1st shift. -Company leadership likes to demand mandatory overtime for Electronic Assemblers way too often resulting in slumps of work where they'll "offer" unpaid time off. -Company is also hyper reactive and volatile when trying to meet demand. Including laying off the majority of a third shift when work got slow, to then mass hiring for all shifts nearly doubling low level employees including a weekend shift about a year after cutting the 3rd shift, that has now been dwindled back down to similar employment levels only 8 months later.
