Extron Electronics reviews

Where to Begin? I will try to stay as objective as possible. First off, the claim that management asks its employees to post positive reviews on glassdoor is 100% true. How can anyone trust a company that does that? So take the positive posts with a grain of salt. Secondly let me verify the many claims people have posted on here: - You punch in/out for lunch even as a salaried engineer - True - HR rules with an iron fist and enjoys firing employees -True - Most employees are in a state of constant fear - True - You have to notify the "team leader" of all your bathroom breaks - True and degrading - The holiday luncheon is mandatory - False, I've known a few people who missed and lived to tell about it. - Fresh ideas and creativity is stifled - True - Old fashioned company culture - True - High employee turnover - Very True - Lack of a career path - True - this is a place to get a job not build a career! I worked here many years and finally realised there was no room for advancement. You really have to leave if you want your career to grow. This company started out as a small business run with an iron fist and just a few employees, unfortunately it has not progressed beyond that mentality. My advice: If you need the money and work, take the job and continue to look for something else. If you can financially handle it, I would recommend passing on any offers.
