Vantaggi
Very interesting medical device and hospital products mfg. right here in the Lehigh Valley. Located off RT22 at the airport. A variety of modern technologies utilized offering new or current employees a wealth of opportunity to contribute and learn. Friendly people, amenities, and strong benefit plan. Well spoken of in the local and regional community. Also Well spoken of in various professional circles and organizations.
Svantaggi
Current US based President (from Germany) is too hyper-focused on DEI. This is distracting from more important opportunities (and issues) here in Allentown. IT dept. and 'IT related systems' is past due for a major restructuring and revamp. A major restructuring/revamp will improve efficiencies, reduce downtime and non-value added actions/activities plus enhance morale in Allentown. HR is not actively engaged with the mfg. and office domains in Allentown. Come out of the bubble and see/feel the pulse of the operations. Two (2) tiered disciplinary system exists (favoring some 'tenured folks') which causes morale and other issues (esp. for the newer folks). Level the 'disciplinary field' to be equal for all employees both new and tenured. EHS / Safety culture needs more focus and prioritization too.
