Pros

Company trips to Terrell, TX. Opportunity to learn and grow.

Cons

I was an engineer for 5 years until the company fell on hard times and LAID me off WITHOUT severance. What a joke. So much for respecting employees. This was after I had won multiple awards.

Unfortunately due to the economic impact that the pandemic has caused, we had to make some very difficult decisions. We understand that these decisions impact the lives of our employees and we do our best to provide anyone who leaves the company with various resources to assist them. We feel that respecting employees that have been impacted by these decisions is of the utmost importance. We would like to take the opportunity to speak with you about your individual experience and get further details about your experience. Please reach out to us at aweaver@obe.com or 214-273-3433 so that we can learn more about your situation. Thank you for taking the time to provide us with your feedback.
