Pros

Front line employees focus and live the mission of the organization, decent benefits including education support

Cons

After years of transformation engagement levels are low, lack of leadership at the executive level (evident in CEO rating), missing focus on employee engagement and positive career experience, too many cooks in the kitchen, not the right voices included in critical decision making
