Syntech Systems reviews

* Former executive leadership in engineering had a philosophy of "cheaper is better" when it came to hiring. Unfortunately this is the gift that keeps on giving in terms of product quality. * Very relaxed atmosphere leads to lack of urgency to get things done in many cases. Parking lot is pretty empty by 5:15p. Some employees always seem to be surfing when you go to their desk. * Cronyism in some teams encouraged by their managers. * Too many meetings. Usually called by employees who never seem to do any actual work. * Above average turnover during the past 5 years for various reasons. * Owner is getting older and is grooming his children to take over. Lots of anxiety in terms of how they will run the company or even possibly sell. * Facility is sort of run down. Temperature never seems to get below 78 degrees in some areas. * Facility is in high crime area. Several employee vehicles have been burglarized during work hours in recent years. * IT department works hard but is understaffed leading to inefficiencies especially in engineering. * Some employees promoted simply to get them out of the trenches and prevent them from further damaging the product (see 12/15/2016 review).
