Pros

Salary is ok. Food court is cheap and convenient.

Cons

Poor leadership, very incompetent middle management, managers are rude and entitled, there is harassment and unfair treatment of employees. Workload is high and there is no benefit for working large amount of hours, no work-life balance.

Pros

1. Technically challenging and interesting work. 2. An enjoyable place to work a few years ago. 3. Competitive compensation a few years ago.

Cons

Below are my opinions and experiences: 1. Forced vacations. 2. Furloughs. 3. Reduced 401k benefits. 4. No salary (or minuscule) raises past 3 years. 5. Reduced bonuses. 6. Very hyped stock plan that is questionably fraudulent. 7. Hard-nosed condescending management that simply squeezes everything and makes it a miserable place to work. 8. Sales going down. 9. Good suppliers taken advantage of. Do not pay their bills for 2 months a year before end of semester likely to pad bonuses for management. 10. Bureaucracy prevents anything from getting done and pointless to start. 11. Old school management not realizing nothing gets done in 20+ person meetings. 12. Good 'ol boys network. Not 1 women in any management position...not 1! 11. Can't get qualified help so recruit from out of country. 13. No long-term thinking, plan, or vision. Very short-sighted. Certainly no Elon Musk leading this company. 14. Management has pitted every department against each other. No teamwork just finger pointing. 15. Seymour Indiana. 16. A lot of quality people & management all pointing out issues but not enough people to fix them.
