Pros

Nice and smart co-workers. Good working condition. They let you telework one per week.

Cons

Low salary. Minimal raise. They want us to do green time. Very micro management style of environment. Daily stastues is a must. Not a whole lot of opportunities for grow. Health insurance cost went up more than double this year.

Pros

higher than average pay, more stable than most commercial engineering outfits, wide variety of products/projects to work on if you're flexible. Depending on job/area/management relaxed dress code.

Cons

Too many directors and VP's, there seems to be a VP for just about everything. HR has way too much power and no technical background making their judgement of promotions/hiring/growth relegated to excel spreadsheets. Benefits are pathetic but company says they are "industry standard". Coorporate says they are "going to change culture" for the last 5 years but have never actually taken steps to implement a change, corporate culture is from late 80's.
