Pros

My low score was because of my experience. That does not mean others won't have a better time. They were great about catering to your personal life as long as while you were there you worked. If you played the game of being late everyday and leaving early or taking long breaks you should not expect the same treatment as the people that showed up early and/or worked late. The culture of the work place was relaxed but when it was crunch time the stress level could be quite high and, tempers would show. Most of the people I had problems with did not move to Dallas so, that could lead to a better environment with time. The skill set that was the original company is not the same as it is now, and the people that do have the skills and ability to get the work done that are there will with time I believe get back to the abilities they had before.

Cons

Because the management were young and new at their management positions they had a hard time dealing with people at times. The engineering group were young and most of them did not have enough experience to do what they were doing with out a lot of help. Most schools do not teach this type of electronics anymore so that is understandable. The technicians suffered some of the same problems but they ended up relying on just a few people to help pull them through. Which complicated tribal knowledge problems.

Pros

Busy! Work days go fast & there is no shortage of tasks to complete. However, those tasks are scattered all around and half of the day is finding where to document all the work that has been done. Engineers are great, same with project managers and buyers. If you are open to communication and working as a team this is a great environment. It is a great position for increasing your purchasing/supplier chain skills for when you decide you have enough and want to go elsewhere.

Cons

Micro Manager Major!!! You will do everything that is asked and it will NEVER be enough. Even if the work you do is great, management will find a fault and bring it to your attention with a magnifying glass and give you a microphone expecting you to define what went wrong and will hold you to it even after the 'fault' is corrected. The environment is nasty and disrespectful. Everyone keeps their heads down and it feels like crazy town that no one is coming to rescue you from the venomous demands and unfair expectations. There is such a thing as a stressful job, then, there is your manager making it way worse by how they treat their department. Pay is terrible. If you are willing to accept this position go as high as you can because they go low and the stress from management and the demand of the job topped with low low pay is frustrating. If the environment is going to be toxic they need to at least MAKE IT WORTH IT BY PAYING EMPLOYEES STUPID HIGH SALARIES! Then maybe, just maybe, people will stick around for the abuse if they can at least afford a massage on the weekends and a vacation.
