Pros

Good pay and fun working environment most of the time.

Cons

Im going on a year long deployment and requested to have my last 3 days in the states off work without pay and was told no. I know they are not legally required to give any time off of work but when someone is defending you and every person you care about and giving up a year with their loved ones and risking their life for your freedoms 3 days off without pay doesnt seem to be much to ask. Whoever it is that makes these decisions should be fired.

Pros

-Free coffee -You don't get money taken out of your paycheck for benefits, because they will not offer them to you for the first 3+ years, and even then, they will screw it up so that you have to wait until November to resubmit your paperwork. (wait, may be this should be in the "Cons" list...)

Cons

-The free coffee tastes like the poo coffee that Austin Powers drank. "It's a bit nutty." -Nordson Asymtek is the worst place that I've ever worked. If the company had a motto it would be "That's not my job" with a huge, motivating thumbs up after it. -It will forever be the laughing stock of companies that I will never work at again, even if they offered me quadruple pay. Yes, you read that correctly, I wouldn't work there for 4X the pay. It's THAT bad. -The line supervisors are people that started out at probably $8.00 an hour back in the day, and have never left. They don't do anything except sit at their computers and browse the web. I'm being completely honest, ask someone that works there. -Example: The company treats their employees so poorly, that while I was there, an employee took it upon themselves to purposefully clog the toilets so that black water would overflow the plant, and they were successful. For about a month, the toilets would randomly overflow, and maintenance had to be called out on a daily basis to fix it. My team and I worked with blackwater in our work areas... -Nordson Asymtek only hires temporary works. They do not outsource for permanent employees. Most people will work there for 2-5 years and only get offered full-time when they threaten to quit. Nordson has no problems loading you down with a rediculous work load, and giving you critical responsibilities that could cripple their work flow if you quit, but they do not have the respect to compensate you fairly in return. The reason being, because the company was sold and turned into a cashcow by a large corporation. -If you read this, you've been warned, lol. Go ahead, work there and see if I'm completely full of their coffee.
