Pluspunten

- Provides extremely stable employment - Knowledgeable and competent R&D team - Profitable even in tough business conditions - Great benefits, especially insurance and vacation time policy - Most of the people are very friendly - Good middle management

Minpunten

- Senior management does not define company strategy and simply either lacks a vision or if has one, does not communicate to lower level employees - Upper management never tours facilities, despite the fact that 3 of the biggest facilities are within a 15 minute drive of the headquarters. - Extremely poor communication between departments - Very poor annual compensations, even for the best employees - Many employees are underpaid and are no longer driven, yet remain with the company, thus leading to general lack of innovation - While has plenty of good managers, lacks good leaders - Very few young people - Extremely understaffed, especially in Manufacturing - Long work hours to make up for lack of employees - Heavy reliance on outsourcing of manufacturing to Mexico to save very little money at the expense of people's jobs in the US. - Does not invest in developing people whatsoever
