A rudderless ship

Pros

Decentralized management structure and not afraid of investing in resources to get the job done. Good healthcare package and return on stocks.

Cons

Constant restructuring so you never know from one day to the next if they're going to fire 10 people or so. It didn't seem to matter where in the organization you were they'd cut people loose. The company was restructured 2 or 3 times my last year there. Merit increases went anywhere from 1% to 3% depending on what mood they were in. There are almost no employees in the office with more than 10 years experience. Most fall into the 5-7 year window and then you have a few with 20+ years but nothing in between. The last 3 years we had stopped developing any new products. We were finishing up things that had started but nothing new was in the works. Everything engineering was doing feasibility studies on over the last 2 years was killed at the first management review. Doesn't seem to follow the IDEX motto of innovation.

Greed and Micromanagement

Pros

There are some good people there

Cons

Company has a culture of greed and they will micromanage and instill fear to get it. Extremely short term focused. Worst place I've worked at in my 30 yr career. If you don't want to come home every night stressed and hating your job don't work here.

Pros

- You walk on water if you graduated from U of R - The company comes together shortly after layoffs occur, with pizza parties and inventory checking

Cons

- Finance folks in Illinois and Massachusetts at one point treated this facility as a golden goose, but now it stopped laying eggs, and they are hungry! - Rapid brain drain, as tenured and non-tenured talent are not safe from mass layoffs
