Pros

Good, hard-working, and kind people 9/80 work schedule

Cons

The legacy culture of caring and taking care of employees has been exterminated by the current Executive Leadership. "Walter Zable, founder, is rolling in his grave!" is the murmur you hear as you walk through the corridors. Cold, calculating measures are taken to reduce work -force , folks with decades under their belt are escorted out . Reductions in force are rampant, outsourcing of key functions are sent to India, and now no 401k match or pay increases. Mark my word, Covid was not the cause, this was due to poor management and overspending to purchase new businesses and buildings, without proper planning. CEO has a reputation for being a Dictator and CFO sees cost cutting like a with a Clearance cutter with a machete, all the while CHRO stands by and does nothing.

Pros

My manager was awesome. Job was diverse and creativity was welcomed. Salary was pretty good, even if I was technically doing two types of positions. Co-workers were also good, some great, actually. Work life balance was also pretty good. All credit to that goes to my manager and the managers I've had before my last one.

Cons

In the end, my loyalty seemed to not be valued. My hard work showed and I met deadlines before the due date. Only called in sick when actually sick, and hardly took time off. The thing that bothered me the most was the way they laid me off. Group Teams video meeting, but the person giving us the news was not on video. Just a black screen, telling you that was your last day and that after that meeting your access will be cut off. And it was. I almost felt like an email would've been better than that black screen. That is really the only time I felt bad about the way things went. I know corporate life brings in the usual fiscal year layoffs, but it just felt wrong the way it was done, in my opinion.
