Pros

The staff was more like family than coworkers and worked well as a team. Every person was always ready to assist each other when thing got hectic.

Cons

After the MTI take over things went to hell in a hurry. 2 weeks after the buy out ,the MTI snipers set their sights on key targets taking out different positions throughout the company the result was other positions having to take on the duties of the fallen. Now the survivors are over worked and stressed because no one knows who is in the cross hairs next. Every day a mass email fills your computer monitor to inform future targets that the casualties were not in vain as a new Manger or vice president has sprung to life at the parent company. To all those who survive congratulations and those who don't ........good luck

"Antiquated company with no growth"

Pros

Good people who want to do the right thing. Recent acquisition could be a opportunity to leave the recession type mentality and grow ( they will probably mess that up too).

Cons

CEO is a micromanager who makes ALL the decisions. The CEO lives in a pretentious environment. Middle management does not want to disclose how things really are to CEO or executive team due to retribution. The model is to cut everything except the CEO's salary which is far higher than companies five times MTI's size....and they are growing. No work/life balance.

Pros

Has some incredible employees who have high work ethics and personal values. That holds the company together right now. Due to such low staffing levels wide amounts of experience in broad areas. If you are a workaholic that doesnt mind having nothing outside of work this is a good company for you

Cons

Little to No work lilfe balance. CEO way too involved in small details. Very top down driven organization, CEO at the heart of virtually every decision. Many road blocks to rapid decisions.
