Pros

Atlas Copco is a Global company and the Global mindset is extremely optimistic and mentoring to it's employee. The Tool & Assembly Division operators from a different mindset. Work long hours, weekends, - make minimal to no changes in the process, and expect to maybe one day meet your goals. a typical day would be coming in between 6-7am working through lunch and leaving between 8-9pm at night. Saturday's were a bit shorter, going in at 6am and leaving at 1-2pm. Everyone there is so buried in work that when one person is out sick, or even worse takes a vacation - it really puts that person in a Typically the only work done were the emergencies and one pays a dear price for being off. If you are out one day being sick you can expect to have to come back to over 100 emails. ***Atlas Copco defines HIGH PACED and poor planning****. It is what it is, but they make a great product. Just know that going in will be paid well, have great benefits, but you will pay for it in the hours you work and the constant high intensity of stress you are under,

Cons

Assembly Division doesn't walk their talk. There is no CLEAR and DEFINED communication between departments. Each department operates like an individual island pointing fingers at the other one instead of a team, and even within the teams there is dissention.

Pros

The best thing about Atlas was above average compensation, and the benefits were great. I believe the benefits were better than the compensation.

Cons

The business tends to lay off every four or five years. Most of the lay off is from production, not the office jobs. I we laid off twice from 2008-2013, up and down business market.
