Pros

Panasonic Avionics is a reputable company, with that include 401K contributions, good medical benefits. The major product is equipment and software for inflight entertainment. The work environment is extremely fast paced and challenging. Most people work on multple projects/programs that have delivery times linked to penalities for late delivery

Cons

Some of the downsides include insuficient people and equipment resources, which cause erratic project management and frustations, including a "put-out-the-fire" mentality. What project has the most visibility will get the most resources, leaving lower priority projects dangling until that projects priority changes.

Pros

Good benefits, Health and Dental, Vision, up to 4% 401k match

Cons

New management has no idea how business supposed to be managed. They are pulling management folks from Intel and Amazon. Taking new development to Oregon where their homes are. Also, sent most of the work to India to show the profitability. The company doesn't have traditional Japanese culture any more under current management as everyone is trying to fill their pockets and looking for their benefits.
