Pros

Pros: It's a paycheck. Very good health benefits. Great people, very close-knit workers. The people are what make this place.

Cons

Cons: Extremely political upper management filters down into attitudes of operation-level workers. Lack of job security. Deliberately poor and evasive company communication. Suntech has experienced enough shake-ups in the last year to make even a native Californian nervous. Just a look at the news shows heavy lay-offs, a scandal or two, and the removal of top-level management. It all contributes to a strong 'abandon ship' mentality.

Pros

Great company and great people. I was able to contribute and help make improvements more than is possible at other companies.

Cons

Company went into bankruptcy, so it was a great place to work until it went into financial trouble.

Pros

Free nuts in the kitchen. Convenient location near mass transit.

Cons

Misrepresentation of roles, responsibilities and upward mobility (good people often enticed to leave stable jobs relying on misrepresentations) Inexperienced, arrogant CEO in China. Vision for company seems to change every other month. Inexperienced, incompetent and/or unstable management in many departments (not all, but most). Complete lack of accountability of management. Understaffed at every level. Politics pervasive at every level. Constant employee turnover. Lack of job security. Horrible employee morale here. Quarterly (seriously) reviews for employees (except anyone in a management role, they have carte blanche). Incredibly cheap (how about bringing in lunch for mandatory all-hands meetings once in a while?)
