Pros

- Family-owned with a strong cultural emphasis. -The owner genuinely cares about the employees. - Opportunities for career advancement, especially for shop floor employees. - Good work/life balance.

Cons

- The company lacks a clear strategic vision for engineering and industrial operations. - Inadequate software systems and processes for engineering roles. -The family-owned nature and long-tenured employees provide stability but also lead to resistance to change. - There's a noticeable gap between what the leadership professes and their actual behavior.

Pros

Fun work, meaningful products created. Really nice events put on for employees.

Cons

Impossible to move up if you aren't friends with the hiring manager in most departments. If you don't have at least a bachelors degree, you mean nothing and will never be valued as more than a production worker regardless of your skill and accomplishments.
