Stressful and frustrating

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Huge infrastructure and all the bells and whistles in terms of programs and initiatives to drive the company to global domination of all things electronic.

Cons

Inept director and VP level executives who don't know how to execute on the lofty ill-conceived promises they make to the CEO to satisfy Wall Street analysts. Employees are touted as their most valuable asset but when times get tough, it's lambs to the slaughter.
