Pros

Sigma is a stable place to work and does not off employees like some other area employers have. In addition, it will hire candidates that don't have the most experience for their position and train to their needs. Upper management seems to have a good view of where the industry is going and the drive to get Sigma there.

Cons

Their salary and benefits aren't the best in the area, so many people will get hired, work for a few years and accept a higher paying position elsewhere. Consequently, I believe that a higher than normal amount of turnover is tolerated, which may be detrimental down the road. Further, their conservative philosophy can be a handicap if forward-thinking ideas aren't recognized and implemented.

Pros

The company is very stable. One of the leaders in the industry. Not many lay offs during the recession.

Cons

Hard to advance without an MBA, even with science degree. European offices have different policies than US, so theres inconsistency.

Pros

Co-workers were great people to work with.

Cons

Communications from management was hideous. For all the touting of being One Company, there was no evidence of that. Each initiative and each location seem to operate under their own set of rules and guidelines. A highly political environment to work in. A company that likes to run lean, at the detriment of being able to accomplish the sometimes ridiculously high expectations.
