Pros

Benefits outside of health. 401K great match, stock purchase plan is no brainer. Great people that aren't in management.

Cons

Managers are either short timers climbing the ladder and will step on everyone needed or old timers that should have been let go decades ago. It's a buddy system. Simply put.

Pros

Good salary and 401K. Benefits were good and were the main reason to stay with the company. Co-workers were generally great to work with.

Cons

As the company moved from AMP to TE, work life balance got worse and worse. Last few years working at TE, you were expected to work from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM. If you left work after 8 or 9 hours you were called on the carpet for not giving them all of your time. Vacations were not vacations as you were expected to check-in and be on call. If you managed to stay with the company for many years and enjoyed the challenges it presented, they would try to get you to leave. If they couldn't get you to leave on your own, they would lay you off or release you. Of all of my co-workers in Engineering who were near their planned retirement date, most were given poor reviews the year before their retirement. Some after many years working for TE were actually walked out with management overseeing their "cleaning out their desks" like they were criminals.

Pros

not any pros, none sorry

Cons

They will only use temps, and even if you work 2 years, and bust your butt, they will not hire you. Even if by miracle if you are hired, as supervisor i can tell you we paid below the market, your better off elsewhere. Management puts pennies before people, always. family emergency? screw you. They are also shipping most jobs out of country and being real shady about it. not being open about it, closing plants. Look it up TE is a "holding" company. Holding companies don't care about the product, research holding company, and you will want to steer clear. Edit: I would like to add, I felt bullied by management, often. example They push this "stop work" if you think is something wrong, you could stop work to make sure it was right. I performed a few my self. the words from my supervisor still ring in my head today, when i stopped work on medical product that had issues. he told me: "You make waves when you stop a X valued shipment...... we dont like waves. it hurts us. remember, we look for calm waters when we want to give a promotion" This was medical product, with lost traceability, and they care more about the value of the shipment than the traceability, of medical product, that goes in people... This guy, in management told me the week before that i there might be a engagement seat open. And now he was holding it over my head, because i raised concern around medical product. It felt sickening. It felt like a mafia thing, "listen to me if you know what is good for you". Needless to say, I had this same thing from our HR lady, and quality department as well. I did end up making management, and I think I was let go, for making "to many waves" Ive had Quality overlook us sending bad product to medical and aerospace customers often. I have also gone to HR with a threat from another coworker, and they did nothing about it. (the other worker didn't "cause waves")
