Dont do it, Ampex is not worth your time and will set your career backwards
|
|
General staff are really nice hard working people.
|
Upper management is dishonest and secretive and wont listen to the people they hire to do the job. Management has no idea how things actually should be done, and cant plan ahead to save their lives.

Stop blaming everything on everybody else. Invest in the company so engineers don't have to bring personal tools from home to complete tasks. Start solving problems instead of creating them and then pointing fingers at people who have no control over anything.

Treat good employees with respect!
|
|
-laid back environment
-Training and development is encouraged here
-Most of the employees are great to work with
|
-General manager doesn’t know how to treat employees with respect. Learn how to communicate effectively with your people. Instead of DEMANDING respect, COMMAND it. Stop yelling and embarrassing employees in front of other employees.
-Good employees are undervalued

Ampex employs a Great team of engineers. Customers are working with cutting edge technology and they have come to expect excellent customer service.
|
Staff is a heads down and get the job done kind of group so it's hard to get information from them unless you are there at the right time to ask about new features or new products.

Upper management is ruining the sole of a 72 year old company. The people and business philosophy that made Ampex what it is today are obviously gone and forgotten. I have watched the demise of this company and it is crazy how fast it has taken a turn for the worse.

This is a great company failing due to lack of vision and leadership.
|
|
You will work with some excellent people on interesting and important products. Some of the biggest and best names in aerospace are our customers, and the market demand will never go away. Our products are well regarded in the industry.
This is a very friendly and informal environment, even when the crises are piled up. You can talk to just about anyone about just about anything.
Ampex has a long legacy of great products that carries thru to procedures and capabilities that younger companies of a similar size lack.
|
It is always a crisis. The deadlines imposed by sales guarantee that the product will either be late or not finished when delivered. This as led to a culture of chronic shortcuts which make a mockery of the official quality policy.
Sales are highly dependent on military procurement, which is uncertain and has long cycles. The current management has not grasped that even after six years.
Ampex's legacy as a large Silicon Valley manufacturer has stuck the company with a large pension debt that prevents proper investment in ongoing operations. Promotions, raises, and training are non-existent. Even retention of necessary personal is neglected.
