Pros

Great pay and benefits; excellent 401k match; paid week off after Christmas with out having to use personal paid time off

Cons

Management style from the 1970's - employees seen as property - response to problems is "work more and longer hours" - ethical concerns, they report false information to upper management. The expectation is that departments work against each other. Absolute chaos. Inventory accuracy 60% at best, no work instructions, no training department, inaccurate bills of materials, will not address the issues, then want to know why products don't ship on time. Do not believe in process improvement, only "blame and shame".

Pros

Big Global Company with Swedish background. Fun people to work with and some global vision with it's products. Some global travel.

Cons

The problems are big there. Atlas Copco like many companies seems to like to promote the loudest jerks in the room. They seem to look around the company and find the person who has upset everyone and give them a higher position. The Rock Hill office was filled with these types of loud obnoxious managers who would do anything to see you fail, all while demanding you never make a mistake. You are also expected to be on call 24X7 with no compensation for being called at 2 AM or having to be in a meeting at 3 AM with Sweden. You are still expected to show and and work. The open cube layout of the office is horrible and does more to stop work. So much noise and distractions going on you can't get your work done. The same loud obnoxious managers had these stupid cubes put in all while they get offices and quiet to work. The annual raises were a joke. If you did get one it was less that 1%. But while we were "losing" money all of the management staff got a nice raise and a bonus while the people on the floor got a pay cut.
