Vantaggi

Great, dedicated, hard-working employees. Most that I've worked with are talented people doing there best to put out great work. The managers I've been under have been caring compassionate supervisors that looked out for the interests of their direct reports.

Svantaggi

R&D and innovation are suffering. There's no appetite for riskier technologies or products. Sustaining engineering, six sigma and lean manufacturing are taking the place of innovation, creativity and discovery. Bureaucracy is becoming a huge problem. Automation of common tasks is forcing a one-size-fits-all environment that suits almost no one and makes it frustratingly hard to get tasks completed. The culture promotes too many pointless/innefficient meetings. There isn't a long term vision outlined that employees have a clear way to support, people are left wondering "how do I fit in" and "where are we going"?

Vantaggi

Good pay. Good benefits. My coworkers who were at the same level as me were supportive.

Svantaggi

Work environment was highly stressful and often unsustainable. Management created a culture where employees were frequently overworked, undervalued, and burned out. Communication from leadership was inconsistent and their expectations changed frequently. Work-life balance was very poor. Employee concerns did not get taken seriously unless they directly impacted company performance. When an HR compliant involving my supervisor was filed for his behavior with input from the majority of the team members, no meaningful action was taken beyond stating it was handled "per BSC policy". Opportunities for promotion and career advancement were limited. Employees who treated others poorly were often still rewarded or praised as long as performance metrics were met. There was a clear culture of favoritism and hierarchy, and employees outside of those circles could work above and beyond expectations without receiving recognition or advancement opportunities. In 2 years, there were 12 employees who were fired in a 10 person department.
