Company going through growing pains.

Pros

Easy-going atmosphere from the president on down. Co-workers are pleasant, and friendlier than at any company I've ever worked for in the past. The owner has set a goal to be one of the best places to work in the world, and evidence of that is all around, from the employee fitness center, to the ergonomic workstations.

Cons

German parent company uses different systems, and expects same results from US operations, with the same ease and speed achieved in Germany. This is definitely not the case and friction between cultures arises occasionally.

Pros

The environment is relaxed, communication from upper management is fairly good and the benefits are reasonable.

Cons

Anyone with career ambitions who is not an engineer may get frustrated here. There is little room for advancement, growth or promotions in the non-engineer positions.

Pros

Reasonable demands of field sales, but rewards for success are there. Great regional and sales manager. President is very hands on and competent. Good with vacation days and personal days.

Cons

Some what limited options for promotion since it is a small company. Harrisburg is not the best city to relocate to, but the office is nice.
