Flex

Hours were second shift. Advancement was none existent.

Management, Department, Customers, Structure, Pay

Not enough work at this time of year.

Nature of Job is repetative

There is so micro management

Unfortunately manufacturing space is low margin

Managements unwillingness to step up to customers that don't support their test equipment, instead telling their engineers to "Deal with it." rather than getting the customer to fix their problems. Sometimes lots of pressure and overtime to try and meet tight production schedules. Hockey-stick quarters due to wall-street driven revenue targets, resulting in hurry up and wait situations, instead of steady flow.

The problem is they cannot maintain valuable customers needed to sustain the real profit they need to function. Therefore, they are always cutting corners by layoffs, Plant shutdowns, and reducing Paid Time Off hours you can acquire . As a result management is always on the merry go round and can't seem to provide needed guidance in any direction.

Lots of layoffs, hard to balance work-life. Office culture is good.

-Poor communication -Lots of turnover - low pay for the industry
