They just need a warm body to answer phones and place orders

Pros

Great benefits and programs offered

Cons

They are a multi billion dollar company that withstands anything because the manufacturer medical supplies and there will forever be a need for it, yet they had a mass layoff of 150 people at lunch time on a Thursday and it was horrific. Also the managers and supervisors only hire and move up the ones in their click. It has nothing to do with qualifications when making the decision.

Pros

Good company car list, including EVs. Salary is competitive. Good colleagues and support from other engineers (not management)

Cons

There is very little if any training, which can make you feel unsafe. Traveling time is not factored into your working day, expect to travel “2-4 hours” a day unpaid. Expect unrealistic quotas that can only be achieved through working over your hours. The approach of “Empowerment” has lead to leadership being dismissive of issues raised. Leadership are unwilling to assist subordinates and understand their role and needs. No career mobility.
