Pros

People are really nice even though it was difficult talking to many of them because they speak a different language

Cons

It took over a month to get a MINIMUM WAGE increase. This is the only increase I got after working here three years and even though it was a city ordinance they did not increase until February. Everyone who works here knows that you will not get a raise unless you're in a more "visible" position. Words right from my supervisor's mouth. Had enough and applied for a few jobs around the area cause I was struggling to make ends meet. Found a company paying $10 more per hour after two weeks of searching . It was only then they tried to offer me a "raise" to keep me. Also not a "secure" work place. There are layoffs every quarter. Will be surprised if they are still in the US in the next 15 years.

Very toxic company culture

Pros

If you are lucky you get to work with some good people in your team. I was able to build good relationships with coworkers but that’s about it.

Cons

The profit in electronic manufacturing is very lean, company hires desperate people with below market pay. Very high turn over, good quality people only uses it as a steppingstone. Many people have been with the company for several years and received no raises. It is a company unwritten policy that no annual raise will be given. Your performance review is just a piece of trash that nobody really cares. Very expensive benefit and non existent 401k. Company shows no appreciation to employee contribution and loyalty.
