Just ok

Business Outlook

Pros

Pay and Benifits are good. Clean decent facility . Alot of nice people on the floor wiling to help and give advice.

Cons

Management was top heavy. Continually hiring Engineers for everything under sun. Constantly changing stuff around on the floor for the machinist only to have it fail in a few months. Then hiring another engineer to try something else. Rinse and repeat over and over again. Never would they listen to people they had on the floor making them the money.

Business Outlook

Pros

Strong history of ground breaking and encouraging innovation in their workforce. Friendly employees and management. Remaining connection with founders values and ideals. Relaxed environment and interactions. Enjoyable daily routing

Cons

Lack of corporate structure or roadmap can be frustrating. Occasionally unsure of where you stand (e.g., are you meeting/exceeding expectations). Very tight self-regulation, often feel as if every 2 steps forwards results in taking 1 step backwards. Location, rural indiana is not a sought after location.
