Pros

The facility has provided me with a career capable of meeting my financial obligations. They offer tuition reimbursement for all associates with a two year commitment from the time of receiving the final reimbursement check.

Cons

The management team is in a constant state of flux. Poor decisions and poor understanding of the business requires the associates of the organization to work much harder to accomplish business objectives than should be necessary.

Pros

New company with tons of potential for growth. Specialized product in a market with very few global competitors.

Cons

Aged work force in the professional ranks that does not support people coming in from the outside with experience. there is only 1 way to do things, the way it has been done for 100 years. Canton is a backwater town with zero culture.
