Pros

The Benefits are excellent. The people are very nice and extremely business oriented. No chattiness. Work day flows very well.

Cons

My only com for me would be, learning all the methods to apply for my position. The work.flow paper work the tracking system seems a bit wonky. Needs updating in my opinion only. It may make sense to leave what they have in place though. Didn't let in on what exactly I would be doing. I have learn a whole new process in assembly I have never done before on a larger application I am training on and is taking some time.
