Extron Electronics reviews

People live in fear of HR. HR is always breathing down your neck. You will have to clock in when you get to work, clock out when you leave for lunch, clock in again when come back from lunch and clock out when you leave for the day. If this sounds tedious and outdated, it is and if you don't get 80hrs every 2 weeks, you'll get warnings from HR and threats of termination even if your only shy of an hour. If you want a no stress work environment, you don't care about career progression, you don't care about learning anything new, you want to do the bare minimum and get away with it, you're about to retire, or you're okay with below average pay then this is your dream company. If you are a smart, talented engineer I would recommend you steer clear of this company. There are plenty of better companies to work for out there. Usually I wouldn't waste my time writing a review but I have been mistreated by HR twice. Initially when I got an offer from Extron the salary was well below average and I tried to negotiate, but HR wouldn't budge on their offer and threatened to move on to the next candidate if I didn't accept the offer in 3 days. Then when I decided to leave the company for a better opportunity, HR decided to not pay for the 2 days that were paid holidays. I will definitely miss my co-workers, but Extron you will not be missed.

- Super low salary - Crazy work hours - Your input is not wanted, just be a puppet - You will be micromanaged for sure. - lunch time is 30 minutes, you have to clock out and in for lunch, and you have to explain if you take longer. Also you have to be at work at 8, and will have to send an email to the manager and HR if you are late even a few minutes. - The director walks in the cubical area to make sure no phones are out of any purses or on any desks. - Your monitor should be visible at all times so that they can see what you are doing. - Only work here if you can't find anywhere else, and make sure you switch as soon as you find somewhere else
