Pros

They pay for 92% of employee health insurance.

Cons

Low morale, toxic workplace, management doesn't even bother to personally visit the production floor. There is a massive disconnect between management and the hands-on techs and machine operators, all they see and care about are spreadsheets and numbers. As an employee all you are is a number to them. There is so much bureaucracy process improvements are near impossible.

Pros

- Rochester has one of the most ingenious business models based on stocking and even recreating older obsolete electronic components. That business model is extremely unique and lucrative. - The best healthcare benefits by far. - Establishing a plastic packaging assembly facility in Massachusetts is a great idea.

Cons

- Tremendous riff exists between ownership. - Good ole boy leadership team keeps things stale. - HR is sneaky and uses tactics to entrap employees. Don’t support managers.
