Pluspunten

Great people. Lots of technical know-how. Good pay and benefits. Currently underperforming in a huge market, so there may be a chance for rapid growth if the ongoing turn-around is successful.

Minpunten

Shifting from building products in-house to integrating products from other vendors. This is essential to the survival of the company, but it makes the work less interesting. Most of the development happens in India. The offshore team is very talented and professional, but late night meetings are not great for work/life balance. Currently in turn-around mode (private equity). Owners are imposing much-needed financial discipline, but unfortunately this means periodic layoffs in some areas to pay for growth in others.

Pluspunten

This company has decent pay and good benefits. The HR staff really promotes an environment of trust and confidence, a good aspect at first...

Minpunten

1 Internal company turmoil economically, new owners, new direction, layoffs and pushing to make a better product and service. The stress of change is thick and employees feel the brunt of it. 2 Many jobs were sent overseas, laying off local employees who were told that would not happen...BUT IT DID! 3 Most of the work is reactionary rather than proactive in terms of up-training employees to handle new processes and new product launches. Truly bleeding edge if you like that type of pressured environment. 4 This company promotes supporting higher education but only pay for classes as they see relevant to your job duties. 5 a lot of the processes are handed down from one department to another by management without allowing proper time to adjust to the processes and procedural documents to be written. This causes a lot of chaos...until resolved.
