Business outlook
Pros
Opportunity to learn and get experience. Company Has a great mission and a great foundation. Really difficult to get fired. Great people. Family atmosphere.
Cons
Engineers are glorified secretaries. Company has lost sight of mission over profits. Management is blind. Hard work gets you nowhere. Only way to get recognized is to be part of the 'boys club'. R&D Department has turned away from safety and into material analysis only. Difficulty to get fired has breed laziness. When someone does get fired it appears random. Principle Designated Engineers has fallen asleep at the wheel decades ago. Safety decisions are driven by the larger clients. Smaller clients are largely ignored. Nepotism is rampant.
