Pros
Tektronix had a great history and reputation in the Portland area and the high tech industry. Benefits very generous, employees collegial, most middle managers good to work for, only a few exceptions. Very nice campus, many buildings remodeled.
Cons
Things never really improved after senior leadership changed in the early 2000's. Some communication improved, but decision-making and support of strategies in human resources was horrendous due to the inability to select an executive who would either stay, was qualified, or actually knew anything about the function. Really a shame - in a way the function that should have been most supportive of employee relations ended up imploding on itself.
