Pros

With the revolution change for 3 years, it has been rapidly developing full automation instead of tradition manufacturing, this culture brings us more passion to work, and more opportunities to challenge.

Cons

Not a place whose who don't want to take challenges.

New management with unprofessional and top-down management style

Pros

Pulse was sold to Yageo in Dec. 2018 with an overpriced deal.

Cons

Yageo did not understand how to manage a company like Pulse. After acquisition, the new management tried to manage Pulse business with its own business model without acknowledging the fundamental difference in the nature of two businesses. The new CEO of Pulse, who was transitioned' from the CEO of Yageo, has refused to take accountability for the decisions she's made, such as laying off a lot of Pulse employees after less than 6 months of effort to fit Pulse into Yageo structure. The company then tried to hire them back. In the meantime, the new management failed to retain existing customers with the layoff since the employees were pushed out of the door with no transition time nor severance package if not listed in the original contracts.

Used to be a great company.

Pros

The office location is nice.

Cons

We had great benefits at one point, but once the Taiwanese bought the company, and fired our CEO, they stripped everything that was great about this place away. They are slowly terminating all the senior employees and cutting benefits. No severance packages. Bleak outlook for the future.
