Pros

None. Co-workers were great mostly.

Cons

Terrible benifits, no room for growth, toxic environment and management, unsafe working conditions, machinery was rigged up 99% if the time, zero empathy for employees(had to fight for bereavement leave) harrassment is an encouraged sport at Watlow. Management is completely lost in space somewhere with there heads in the sand. They refuse to listen to complaints and issues brought to them by staff. If your not related to someone or sleeping with someone your treated like dirt! They make promises after promises after promises but never deliver, EVER! You could be there years and be the most skilled person, but they will give a promotion to someone whose only been there a few months. I invested YEARS here, all for nothing.
