      Horrible management. No concern for employees welfare.

      Pros

      Pay was decent and location was easy for me to get to.

      Cons

      Avoid this place if you can. They terminated me just a few days before Christmas. Finding a new job over the holidays is very difficult and any decent employer that cares at all about their employees would know that. People were let go all the time and the environment is very cold.

      DONT WORK IN ASSEMBLY OR FINAL TEST

      Pros

      The pay is decent. Coworkers keep it alive.

      Cons

      Ppe makes working unbearibly hot. Management is micromanagement even in slow season. Say it's cool to be gone for college then criticises you with absenses. Admin and engineers seem to have it made. Everyone above blames everyone below. Preaches quality but tries to cram as many builds and tests as possible into the day. Yells at anyone if they are "too slow" then tells you at meetings to slow it down. Also if you get hired as a temp good luck getting hired on. Know plenty of good techs and assemblers that have worked there for YEARS and are still temps.
