    Poor work-life balance
    The good thingsThe employees are friendly, mostly
    The challengesToo much reporting, and most of the time, within really short time frame. A lot of cost saving, company too aggressive in cost cutting, almost impossible to maintain equipment condition with minimal budget. In top mgt level, they like to work really long hours and expect the middle level managers to work the same way. Almost zero work-life balance. Weekends included
