Master Electronics reviews

This is a completely dead company selling little electronic parts like an unijunction plunket transistor or ambient trimmer potentiometer that 99.99% of people don't care or know about. It's the kind of obscure trinkets Radio Shack sold before it went bankrupt. Because it's a dead-end company, turnover is through the roof. It's so bad, a few months ago, a manager asked staff to post good reviews on job boards so folks would show up to the job fair. People with talent and ambition get bored and go elsewhere. Without attracting and retaining talent, the workplace reeks of mediocrity. They still use a UNIX-based system on green monochrome displays to manage their business. That's how sad it is. On the very best day, the workplace is dull and uninspiring where people go through the motions. On a typical day, there's toxic bullying, deception and favoritism because no one decent would want to be a manager here. If you're on the receiving end of abuse, don't even think of complaining to HR. This is a family-owned business and no way HR will ever punish the owners. A better route is to document the abuse and lawyer up.

If you like to be micromanaged and asked "So you were a little late today. Why?" after being in traffic for 1.5 hours, this is the place for you. Rigid work schedules. I'm on salary and felt like an hourly employee. Had to be there exactly at 8 and leave exactly at 5. If you like to take your lunch for an hour, you can forget being there long term. Also, there are no communications and when you had training, you wouldn't find out until you overhear lunch was being brought in. Parking is a joke and God forbid you park where the CEO parks. Speaking of CEO, he would walk by my desk without introducing himself or greet me. A very loud work environment where you don't get any peace for 8-9 hours a day. Very cult-like environment where people have been there for decades and don't treat you well and don't welcome you. You're expected to perform without any help, guidance, and training.
