Pros

People within the company are very nice and easy to work with. There is an enjoyable company culture. There are opportunities to travel for the commercial teams and application engineers.

Cons

For a high-tech global firm, the building is an embarrassment for hosting visitors and generally a bit of a dump to work in. Poor marketing and branding. Despite the company's good results, salaries are low, which is demotivating.

Advice to Management

Raise the salaries to improve retention, which is going to be a very real issue soon for both graduates and experienced staff. It's easy to employ a CAD engineer, not a CAM engineer.
