      Pros

      Most ethical company I've experienced, with tremendous focus on empowering folks to deliver on commitments. Financially sound with keen eye for business stability on the downside and preparation for the upturn.

      Cons

      Strong focus on leveraging low cost global workforce and supply chain has increased the keen sense of needing to perform above average to stay even.

      Stable, great benefits, but always playing catch-up

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      This company floated through the depression in the stock market like it barely even happened. The sheer size of the company combined with the nature of products we sell makes it a behemoth that's pretty well buffered from the ups & downs that have a much bigger impact on other companies. We also tend to buy out any up-and-coming small company that could be a disruptive force, and integrate them in to "the borg". So if you're a competent employee, your job and benefits are pretty rock-solid stable.

      Cons

      Sort of the nature of the beast in a company this large: lots of bureaucracy which results in a significant portion of our time being spent on activities that are unproductive. Also, the company is much more manufacturing-oriented than technology-oriented, so there's not a very attractive career path for those who want to remain on the engineering side of things rather than jumping ship to management.
