Siemens

Depending on the office, there is a good office atmosphere and friendly personnel.

Pay is at the current rate, unlike other companies.

Online training is provided, as well as some site training.

Jobs last only as long as there are projects available. Training is minimal when the use of new or other software is required. Some people keep their knowledge for themselves as job security.

Salespeople do minimum research on the products they sell before they provide designers with the project information, and leave all research to be done by drafters/designers, which adds to the time it takes to make a design.

Train sales people on equipment use and time required to produce a design. The need to make a quick sale makes them overlook design and equipment needs for the project. This shifts the cost from the Sales department to the Engineering department, making sales look good, while engineering tends to "take too long" due to research and changes made to the original quote by sales.
