Pros

Management really cares about team and org is really people focused. Business is growing and good opportunities to cross train and learn other roles. Lots of focus on safety and work life balance. Good balance of work and fun.

Cons

Supply chain is complicated as many products are complex. Business runs lean which means you get to wear a lot of hats but there’s more work than people to do it! Office could use a bit of a refresh. IT systems are slow and some out of date.

Pros

Great Benefits along with working with wonderful people that care about the work that they do.

Cons

Since most of the company is based out of Germany, there's a big difference on how things are done between there and here. Also the pay rates are on the lower side of the industry.
