Vantaggi

1) Time tested engineering DNA 2) PRIDE - when a team delivers a product, it will not be a half measure. It will be the best. Most of those will dominate the industry they compete in 3) Generally industry leading compensation for mechanical engineering related jobs 4) Transparent communication all around the company 5) Midwest cultures and values….. I don’t know what this even means

Svantaggi

1) CEO is too numbers oriented; need someone who can drive innovation 2) Burgeoning aging workforce that is occupying middle management, stifles innovation and risk averse and drives a lot of red tape; it is not easy to just go and do something 3) Electronics and IT are not core competencies; lacks vision at the highest level that shows in laggard technology projects with aggressive implementation and on the IT side questionable people moves and EXPENSIVE external consultants that live a lavish lifestyle with no noteworthy achievement over the last 5 years 4) Although a global company opportunities are minimal outside of where you work; hiring managers for internal postings always have a pre-determined candidate in mind

Svantaggi

They are enforcing returning to office by any means necessary. They have lost many high-quality producers who have refused to relocate or refuse to come in. Here's the kicker - they are requiring in-person attendance at the Chicago office and there aren't even enough desks for everyone. It would be a literal fire hazard if we all came into the Chicago office at the same time, M-F, during business hours. No one knows how or if they are going to actually enforce this. Cost of gas is insane, Joe doesn't care about the workers. Or the work for that matter. It's obvious this is a soft layoff, they have made a bunch of people quit. Their internal design agency is falling apart, lots of people have quit, not only because of return to office but because of the toxic politics, favoritism, and lack of direction and accountability. Mediocre workers are allowed to keep their jobs ONLY because of their ability to put their bodies in a chair and work in-person. The other relocation option HR gave besides Chicago was Peoria. No one wants to live in Peoria for any reason whatsoever, be for real.
