Pluspunten

You are part of a multi-billion dollar global company, so chances for advancement are there if you look for them and are mobile. Honeywell (who purchased Vocollect in 2013) is a stable, profitable company, and is not likely to be purchased by anyone.

Minpunten

Work-life balance? There is none. Volume of work requires 60+ hours per week to complete, so forget seeing your family. We used to get bonuses...now they're gone. We used to get industry-leading healthcare benefits. Now, they are the worst healthcare plan we've ever had. We used to have intelligent, thoughtful, caring leadership. Now, a bunch of drones are running the ship. The only reason I am paid well is because Vocollect paid me well; if Honeywell chose my salary, I would likely be paid HALF of my wage. Oh, and the ever-looming prospect of having our entire manufacturing operation moved to China is very real, so any job here is not guaranteed long-term. DO NOT WORK HERE! There are far better opportunities with far better employers!

Pluspunten

Benefits package is very generous, pay is reasonable, and management is very flexible. When you need time, you take it. Information sharing is better than most places. When management is faced with feedback or criticism, they usually take it seriously. Technology is up to date. People really like coming to work each day. Company values are more than nice words on a poster here.

Minpunten

Strategic focus could be better--they seem to have a "strategy of the year", and each year when it changes the previous one is "something we don't talk about anymore." Some strategic decisions have been made back and forth for so many years they've become a running gag. The new management is less open than the old management was when it comes to sharing information about the company, despite their insistence to the contrary, and there are a couple of "silos" that are hard to cross.
