Pros

Very smart and knowledgeable engineers and product development team. Engineering management is also very understanding and felxible.

Cons

Upper management (Director and supporting roles) lack fundamental knowledge about how to run a successful semiconductor business especially the Palm Bay site. Maintanence team is embarrasingly mismanaged. Very high turnover rate. Current atmosphere is a shadow of bad oversight by previous managers and directors. Pay is good but low compared to the competiton. High stress environment and company fails to offer professional advancements.

Pros

Coworkers for the most part are nice, hours are steady, benefits are about as good as they come.

Cons

Upper management is completely disconnected from how things run in manufacturing/assembly. They ignore advice and seem to look for ANY small reason to let go of someone who isn't brand new and earning just above the minimum. They are EXTREMELY tight with their money and will look for any excuse to cut any cost, even if it'll help production. Which means that the machines are older than I am. Many of the software they use expired nearly thirty years ago and they prefer to limp the machines along using cannibalized parts or buying parts from eBay. Also due to their cheapness, the place is routinely understaffed. They often expect a person to do the work of 2-4 people absolutely perfectly. You really have to pace yourself or else you'll be fun till you burnout easily.
