      Pros

      This is a very difficult question to answer. If you are one of the few employee's in the U.K. you live fat off of the rest of the company.

      Cons

      Reorganize at least 2x a year, no constance of purpose, no direction in the market place or in manufacturing. CEO is a youthful throw back of the 80's on an personal ego trip. He has no understanding of the technology or markets. Additionally the board members that have been choosen to give balance to the CEO are equally inept. This is a company that will emploid. There is a large fraternity of excellent managers that have been laid-off or excused in the past 5 years.

      Pros

      Very complex process that made each day a challenge and interesting. Large plant with a lot of custom equipment which made repairs and upgrades challenging. Great group of hourly people and floor level salary people. Unique product. Great potential both as a product and a business.

      Cons

      Management was dictatorial and didn't have a clue how to run the business. Management was trying to run the operation like it was an automotive parts manufacturer.. Management began gutting the operation due to budget issues laying off 50 salaried engineers, supervisors and managers. Then they started gutting maintenance. As a result a vast amount of institutional knowledge left the company. Efficiencies began to lag as no one knew who to do many of the functions that left with the institutional knowledge.
