Pros

Benefits are OK. Vacation time off isn't bad.

Cons

Vastly understaffed Advancement is Difficult - Hiring only from outside TE for management positions. No respect or loyalty to long term employees. Upper Management has no idea what those below them, Engineers etc., do and therefore have no respect for their work. Extremely regimented - taped off areas on desk where pens & pencils can be placed. Restricted as to where you set down your lunch bag.

Pros

Broadly a good company if you’re in a senior decision making role.

Cons

HR policies are words only. Years go by without ability to take any PTO and carry over not allowed. Friday afternoons, all HR US employees stop working with all others working past normal business hours and into the weekend including late Friday asks to complete an action by Monday 8:00 AM that was known earlier in the week but only communicated to the employee after Friday business hours. Every Friday. Onboarding structure / sink or swim approach, no training. No sense of belonging unless you’ve worked here 20 years plus. No growth or development opportunities unless tapped on the shoulder. Many openings are never published, again tapped on the shoulder approach despite offering to volunteer. Dismissive company culture. Every Voice Counts initiative is code for: if you do share your voice, you are on a list to not consider for promotion or any projects that would give you more visibility across the organization to foster one’s growth.
