Pros

The benefit package is very good, decent medical, dental and great vision plan. Three weeks vacation to start. Office environement is updated and I do work with some great people. Strong brand, well recognized in the industry.

Cons

Much time is spent talking about and analyzing problems, talking about improving process, talking about cost savings.. yet the same problems continue and are not corrected. The management team is stale and needs to be restructered. Most upper level management have been in their roles for 20 + years. New ideas and a new management perspective are LONG overdue.There is a definite style of "do as I say, not as I do". They use the theme "Modern, Global, Dynamic" which is unfortunate because the current organization is not any of these things. Our products are state of the art and innovative, yet our internal technology is basically antiquated, employee orientation is lacking and unstructured. Unfortunatley, growth opportunity is limited and diversity is sorely lacking. There has been an increase in turnover in the sales and service organizations and not enough is done to retain quality employees.

Pros

Per diem is nice, and the company car is ok

Cons

There is no ability to effect change; processes are so manual to keep people employed that should be let go, and the company is unwilling to listen to ideas of change. Also, there is no actual product quality, their so called Quality department does not deal with product quality at all, thus systems leaving the factory untested as a whole system or software releases being fully vetted for functionality. Their "Quality department" is only a CYA department to protect them from FDA audits, which quite frankly, could be called a Complaint Conversion Department. What is the point, other than titles, to call themselves Quality when nothing actually is fixed on the products and they are uninterested in end customer user experience or improving the actual product quality and sustainability.
