Business Outlook

Pros

Great vacation Great health insurance Travel opportunities If you get in the right field, you can get a lot of experience in a short amount of time. Many employees left after 3 to 10 years and got highly paid and prestigious careers.

Cons

Management does not care about you Management forces you to work long hour Minimum raises If you are not part of the boys club you are treated poorly I was not on a Visa, but if you are they abuse you. I even had an employee ask me to hire someone in college as a technician and then once he graduates send him to one of the California labs so they could "abuse the hell out of him" as an engineer. Pressed to complete a lot of work in a short time with little emphasis on quality

Pros

local to motorway and trafford centre

Cons

poor attitude toward health and safety leading to a poor safety culture, negative people constantly complaining which gets you fed up after hearing it everyday. no payrise/bonus. constant threats with redundancy. dont learn much, no investment in new equipment, testing is carried out on the tightest budget ever possible. there test is worth more than your life. do not work here if you want to make something of yourself. if your not bothered about career opportunities/pay rises and desperate for a job then yes ok, go ahead.
