Pros

The people we work with are awesome !

Cons

The management has no idea what they are doing. They keep changing things every minute without thinking about long term consequences. This used to be a great place to work at before all this re-organization took place. They do not value employees or the work they do, its just a bunch of bureaucrats making decisions which impacts 100s of people.

Pros

Amazing products and it use to be an amazing company.

Cons

PAC was an amazing company with quality products, competent leaders (who are now gone) and an amazing workforce. While some leaders were blamed for DOJ violations, this was the result of Japan and NJ leadership that had full knowledge of the situation for the last decade. They threw the old leadership under the bus and removed a key leader that had been reporting this but HQ illegally hit it. The wrong people were held accountable in violation of the law. Incompetent CEO currently who fails to follow the basic business principles he speaks of. Shame shame shame. The founder Matsushita was an amazing man who would have tears in his eyes at what has happened with this Company over the last year.

Worst place to work ever

Pros

Pay was decent for the market and until about 8 years ago they knew what they were doing.

Cons

Management has no clue what they are doing. Nepotism and favoritism runs rampant. The higher up a dept chain you go the more clueless the managers are about how the department actually works. Lower level managers typically make up ridiculous “processes” that are more or less a pieced together guess of how things actually work. If you speak out you will be crucified here. Layers and layers of management make it easy to hide how stupid the people running the place into the ground are. The highest up managers are in place because of who they know or because the previous management was fired for legal reasons so they got slapped in there without any idea what they are doing. They created a culture committee that’s the laughing stock of the company because doughnuts and fake promises of change are not a positive culture. People working here are biding their time looking for other work or just keeping their heads down to get a paycheck.
