Pros

Nice people all around you. Many people have been working here for long years so it's nice to have someone around who you can ask questions. Good starting place for new career seekers since its relatively easy since there is less competition with a ton of experience to be gained here.

Cons

Company feels very disorganized lacking many standard procedures that I believe are important. New employees barely have any training, they're just shown to their desk and put to work with zero training, much like how I was. Job duties are not distributed properly enough, some people do way too much and some people don't do enough. Your title does not necessarily mean you'll only be doing just that.

Don't do it

Pros

Paycheck never bounced. Work isn't hard.

Cons

Management is so out of tuned to be sad. Projects are brought in at a dizzying rate with not thought of how to support it. Engineers are that in name only. Raises haven't been given in years.

Do Not Work Here

Pros

Good people, work is easy if you're knowledgeable and capable, often the job can be laid back. pay is decent coming in the door. Health benefits are okay.

Cons

Inventory is a nightmare, warehouse is poorly mismanaged. Can't hardly ever get repair components in a timely manner, yet you are still expected to get your work completed. Upper management is full of cheapskates who do not hold any value on the people who getting all the work done. No raises, ever. No opportunity to advance. Bonuses only for management. 401k and matching is a bad joke.
