Pros

Talented engineers solving complex issues on very technical equipment and hard working dedicated shop workers.

Cons

Upper management mainly concerned about stock price, stock options, bonus and their parachute . Operations is being ruined by a psycho control freak driving the "clown car" creating a negative environment and blaming everyone else. "blue collar " workers are treated as second class citizens and just labor hours on a spread sheet.

Pros

Interviewers were knowledge and transparent about the company's culture and needs for the role I would fill. The interview schedule and proces was explained upfront and there were no surprises. Everyone I met at MTS was on time and professional. The onboarding process was the most efficient process I've ever experience in my career. I loved the automation part of this step!

Cons

Time invested with all the interviews.

Pros

The company is trying to transform for the future, but all employees need to understand change is needed to grow even though we may not all agree with some of it. The newest manager over the floor should be running the entire facility. He treats the employees with respect and listens to what they say although for now what he can do is limited by his title we all hope one day he will be leading the way and we hope he doesn't change.

Cons

Front line employees stuck in the past. Most have terrible attitudes due to lack of knowledge of other companies. Employees are angry that they have start times and scheduled break times and are no longer allowed to just come and go as they please. Last time I checked this is how every company operates. Get with the times people in order to be successful and continue growth a company must have structure.
