World class change and chaos.

Pros

It is a big company and fairly secure jobs. Very few lay offs. Just be a yes man.

Cons

There are constantly new managers. The managers that stay are the seminar grads just repeating what they heard at the last meeting. The ones that leave just padded their resume and leave behind their broken mess for yet the next new hapless manager to break even further. The mismanagement has driven away and squandered all of their technical talent and experience. There is not even the expertise to train the new hires.

Pros

Good pay, I had the freedom to do my job without much interference and with support when I needed it. Many good people work there.

Cons

Killer politics among Directors and Vice Presidents in Divisions and at Corporate. No job security We were told that management did not value our work and loyalty. Purges through early retirement that destroyed managerial follow through and organizational continuity.
