Pros

?????? still looking. people are complacent so there is not a lot of pressure. certain individuals focus their energy on anything but being a manager. Why is this a Pro? Well, for one thing, this alleviates a lot of the pressure since these managers do all the work and is highly unlikely to share their jobs for fear of their own demise.

Cons

Condescending Managers Managers who are worker bees rather than being managers. Much like all corporate, information is power. Hiring process stinks They don't promote the right people within they bring in people who don't know what they are doing to "get a new perspective" Some directors are as incompetent as the offices they sit in we think we are a real company, but all it is a sales operation product people are not empowered. directors and VPs who think they are managers the only reason people work here now is because there are few opportunities out there. as soon as the job market gets better, then can kiss all the good and loyal employees goodbye never trust a smile from anyone. 99.99% are lemmings...no one dares to speak their minds for fear of being ridiculed in front of a group of your peers. There is NEVER a moment that I feel good about this place because of the management WHAT A JOKE!

Pros

While nearly all other benifits are gone base pay continues to be higher than most companies at the present time.

Cons

No 401K company contribution, no stock options, no bonuses, Canceled company sponsored retirement plan. Reduction in health benefits while increasing employee costs. Due to company being Japan based, most employees are pressured to work until 7pm or later.

Pros

TAEC is a good place to work. Good salary and benefits. The people tend to be competent. They tend not to fire people unnecessarily.

Cons

They are very much a child company of Toshiba Corp (Japan), and exist politically to serve the parent's needs. Not a bad thing unless you want to change policies, affect products, or otherwise step outside of the boxlike enclosure of the child company.
