I have been there for three years now and could not think of a better company to be working for.

In mu honest opinions, the only con I would have with working for this company would be the low base.

Pros

Great people to work with

Cons

The bureaucracy is unbelievable. Trying to get equipment samples to customers is a nightmare. There were so many companies that were purchased and assimilated that the processes are complicated and it makes it difficult to do your job and to serve customers.

Its all about budgets and when its time to make cuts, Some departments make major cuts while others have enough in the budget to work and play with.
