Pros

- flexible, decent benefits - allowed to take ownership of projects - peers are genial and friendly - smaller teams can work better together

Cons

Management too rigid. It hasn't bothered to integrate all the diff. companies it acquires into a cohesive environment - resulting in very little direction.

Business Outlook

Pros

For the first half of the month people are fairly laid back and not too pushy about work. There is an enjoyable work dynamic with co-workers.

Cons

The last week of every month is a mad dash to complete work. Poor communication between project engineers, lab techs, sales. Very repetitive work Management is usually not satisfied with amount of work completed. Management gets a bonus when I go beyond quota, but I see no extra pay

The company as a whole is okay but too much office politics and not enough progressive thinking

Business Outlook

Pros

20 days paid time off, nice benefits. ability to learn about different industries. It is also a global company so it is good experience to build networking opportunities

Cons

You can work here for years and never get promoted. The annual raises are low and performance reviews have less to do with actual merit but is more dependent on politics and the inner circle of upper management. HR department is NOT impartial and could care less about the employees.
