Business outlook
Pros
The starting salary is average for entry level engineers. Also, fellow coworkers are easygoing and good people to work with.
Cons
Lack of precedent, unclear ambiguous directions from management, forced corporate policies that don't fit the branch, bad work culture, dilapidated facility, low pay raises, very little vacation and holidays. This branch was recently acquired by Eaton corporation and probably misrepresents the company. Much of the "tribe knowledge" has left the company, leaving a severe lack of precedent to work from. The branch is thus in a stressful rebuilding phase and unfortunately the employees suffer. There is also an overwhelming stench of boiling coolant throughout the facility from the manufacturing plant.
