Pros

Decent benefits, mediocre pay, not a bad location so close to Carlsbad and the ocean. No other pros to be shared.

Cons

Terrible culture, toxic work environment. This particular location is like working in the wild Wild West. There is no team collaboration, everyone is in it for themselves, and no one is to be trusted. Stress levels are high due to unorganized management. They turned over most of the staff after the acquisition TE made of what was formerly deutsch, and they cannot seem to get it right still. Do yourself a favor and keep looking.

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.
