Pros

Benefits Parental leave 9/80s schedule Vacation Growth

Cons

Hostile to any outsiders. Complete disregard for good engineering practices. Locals lack any manners or regular behavior. Hired brand new, no experience engineers right out of college. This plant is heading towards a dangerous incident at some point if it continues to ignore requirements.

Pros

Great office decor—perfect for hiding the mess!

Cons

- This office is full of politicians better suited for rallies than actual work. - We collect companies like stamps and then forget all about them. - We claim to be a product company so often, we might start believing it ourselves—unless a client from the West rings us up. - We talk big about our '8 Principles' but when it's time to show it, even 'integrity' seems like a foreign word to our middle management. - Charles Koch really needs to peek at his India operations—where they're champions at playing with mental health and subtly nudging folks to resign while bragging that they don’t fire anyone. - Supervisors think they're royalty, not team leaders.

Pros

No hierarchy. You can approach anyone for discussion. It follows open door policy

Cons

Supervisors are puppets to their higher authority. Follows dictatorship method of getting work done. Keeps beating the drum on PBM but no one follows it. No empathy towards their employees Politics played wherever possible
