Pros

Massive company with lots of resources and contracts in all calibration industries

Cons

They hire at the bottom of the barrel and managers are often unfamiliar with the field they're managing. They have resources to buy other companies but never bring them into the Transcat structure because it would increase employee pay. They approve budgets but don't like the money spent. They cannot keep employees, from the time I was hired until the time is left (1.5 years) I had 4 managers pass through the position and the 5th and final had never managed the job my coworkers and I did and would go to his managers about issues instead of employees to see if they were even issues.

Pros

Fast progression and pay raises to those that put for the effort. Fantastic management that works with you when you need time off or any questions about work.

Cons

The mobile team is very active, if that’s not something you’re ready for it can get very tiring.

Pros

Under the old leadership and CEO this company was slowly growing a great work atmosphere where everyone felt like they were contributing the team. We had great benefits package and leadership who listened to any ideas or concerns we had. Small benefits that Field Technicians experienced were encouraged by management to help your work/home life more tolerable.

Cons

Under the NEW CEO and CFO everything is completely centered around the revenue cycle and percentages of margins. All extra small benefits that help with work/home life are taken away. We are being told we do bring in revenue and there fore not at the forefront. They have began nickel and diming all expenses and timesheets. Any atmosphere of teamwork and welcome atmoshpere is slowly being erouded. Customer are complaining of the new systems being placed stating all the advantages that made us different are gone. There is little to no upward movement available for anyone in the field work side of the company.
