Pros

great benefits best medical and best 401 matching ever

Cons

training and onboarding are ineffective at best, I didn't get the tools I needed to simply do my job until 2 weeks before I was fired. I had to constantly BS clients that I knew what I was doing. when I didn't have the ability to look at the diagnostics on the very machines I was asked to repair

Pros

The people in non- upper management roles that work there are fantastic. Great sense of community onsite and the culture champions are consistently looking for ways to make work life better.

Cons

Very poor communication on the strategy for the business unit. Leadership publicly promotes innovation and new ideas to be presented but then those ideas are shot down or penalized in private by current upper management. The business unit leadership says that don't want excuses for project delays but will then decide to do 3 major layoffs in the first two quarters with no transition plan, no support for gap in resources and no expectations to delayed progress.
