Interesting work, worsening benefits

Software engineer

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The work is interesting. There are always challenging new problems to solve, technology to develop, and other stuff engineers live for.

Cons

GE benefits are bad and getting worse. Pension is gone. Vacation is gone. Medical insurance is poor with high deductible and out of pocket costs. The 60 year old plant in Salem is maintained barely well enough to keep rain off people's desks. No joke. The company treats the site like we are all factory workers, not engineering and technical.

Management under qualified

Software developer

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Seems like a great idea to take the job, they appear to have many benefits and what appears to be a good environment. The only real pro is salary.

Cons

Management under qualified and struggle to do their own work increasing work load for their staff. Office politics equal to that of being in secondary school. Huge work pressure and no training. No work life balance. Staff care more about money than service. List is endless, the company are not how they appear to be in interview. They have a terrible attitude towards work which leads to delays and missed targets.
