A dynamic work environment: opiniones de empleados con el puesto de Empleado anónimo en Dytran Instruments

Nice people to work with

I just started. Good company so far

Small, family owned company with some really great people in key positions. Decent benefits and the work/life balance was nice as long as you got your job done. High quality products.

The family is clearly planning to sell the company (despite their constant denials) and the CEO stopped making long range planning decisions a while ago. He comes into the office a few hours a day and watches YouTube videos. The Technical Director is another family member and owner. On the personal level, he is a great guy. On the professional side, he doesn't have the temperament or leadership skills for his role. The CFO is also a family member and owner; she knows her stuff and works hard. The company has a "favorites" culture where a few employees are given free reign to behave as they like with no consequences. A recent favorite quit and at her going away lunch one of the owners noted that HR's workload would significantly lighten because this favorite picked on other employees who went to HR for help, thus taking up HR time. ( Newsflash--no one ever got any assistance with the bullying due to the bully's favorite status.) The Engineering team has real talent but the new product development timelines are never met and that talent is not well used in the company. Production is ALWAYS behind and the place loses business because they cannot deliver. The sensors and cables are top notch within the industry but Dytran can never expand their market share because of leadership and planning issues. Given the quality of the technology they produce, they should be able to compete with others in the field.
