Pros

-Flexible schedule -Easy job- very little pressure

Cons

-Poor compensation/poor raises/poor bonuses -Hard work hardly ever recognized -Stuck on 'cruise control' as are many of the older employees there -Completely unable to adapt to a changing market -A sinking ship with very little hope of recovery because of the above -The Danvers location is a sh*t hole converted warehouse with rodent and insect infestation -Upper management is clueless and very much an "Old Boys" club -Trouble attracting young talent because of the old/slow culture -Very little motivation to work hard because of much of the above -Very much a '9-5' type workplace, where going the extra mile is never done because its never recognized on the back end -The HR staff can be quite abrasive at times -Constant reorganizations left me with over a half dozen bosses in a 3 year time frame -Owned and managed by a German company who looks down their noses at the American development teams

A slow death

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

A very slow moving industry is now now very dynamic creating a lot of opportunity to learn. Great place to get training. 1st level management on down are great people to work with.

Cons

Good old boy network controls this company. The industry is going through dramatic changes and because all the management has been with company for 25+ years they do not know how to adapt. Very slow to deliver new products to keep up with the changes in the industry. As stated by another reviewer - this company is full of B and C players. "A" players leave for more money or to get away from stifeling control by old school managment. Osram Sylvania is dying a slow death. The industry is no longer dominated by 3 major companies. They are struggling to compete with the hundreds of new LED companies that are not old school brick and mortar manufacturers.
