Pros

Great colleagues who are very co-operative and a lot of things to learn from each job experience. Generally a pleasant place to work in and the management is very willing to share their information from HQ to everyone in the company.

Cons

There are not many cons for this company except the pay may be just average compared to market rates. Also, need to be prepared to hang on a bit longer so that you can reap the rewards from your good performance.

Pros

Company investing in new products and higher growth markets

Cons

Over the past five years, there has been a significant decline in employee loyalty and incentive programs. Equity compensation, such as stock options and RSUs, was previously accessible to mid-level managers but is now strictly reserved for directors and above, reducing long-term incentives for a large portion of the workforce. Additionally, an increase in micromanagement and administrative red tape—particularly regarding strict scrutiny on all spending—has hindered productivity. The frequent practice of cutting budgets to meet short-term quarterly Operating Income (OI) targets is ultimately compromising our long-term revenue growth.
