Pros

Trip to Parkstein, Germany for training Good health insurance, very small retention bonuses a few times a year (which help a bit because everyone here is grossly underpaid) Almost everyone (keyword almost) in the office is extremely friendly and easy to get along with. Free food when customers are in the office 5 work from home days per month

Cons

Brag about how great the company is doing yet everyone is grossly underpaid (will need the support of a spouse/partner/roommate etc. or you will live paycheck to paycheck Not able to save/add to retirement etc. due to low pay Good luck finding anyone to take your complaints/concerns seriously (HR/Management) Strict rule followers (see comment above) No sick days or PTO 12 days vacation (which you will have to use for any time off even if you are sick) Not flexible + at some point might have to work different shifts (1st/2nd) and one Saturday per month Upper management clearly doesn’t take employees seriously and lacks empathy/understanding Strict rule followers Inefficient when it comes to how you are trained/have to do your job Lots of mindless tasks-> job duties don’t leave you with any sense of accomplishment or satisfaction Little to no room for promotions Cultures tend to clash at times specifically German/American cultures High turnover rate (see all comments above)

Pros

Trip to Germany, good to experience what it is like over there.

Cons

Lower pay than comparable positions. Bureaucratic. There is a lot of busywork that could be automated. After all, this is an automation company! Your German counterparts yell at you regularly because of this busywork, even though they have 6 weeks vacation and unlimited sick days. We, in the US, have no sick days and no PTO. Management is sexist. HR is horrendous. Toxic work environment. There is a quote hanging in the kitchen that says,”We stay true to ourselves, because we move on.” I feel like this is lost in translation, or maybe not, because the average time spent at Witron is 1 year.
