Pros

Core company culture and values are excellent. Wide variety of markets and businesses under one corporate entity makes for possibility of more interesting job assignments. Historically strong brand and market reputation.

Cons

Company has run out of ideas to grow business organically and now the main strategy is to acquire companies. Hardly counts as "Bold". Company was once very strong in innovation, R&D. Some signs of that coming back to life, but nowhere near previous levels of success. Overall compensation gap between the "Club" at the top and the rest of the managers pulling the work load has widened by an obscene amount. In addition, executive management will go out of their way to take care of themselves, even when things aren't going so well for the rest of the employees.

Pros

Friendly office environment. Process based company. Brady has good internal systems (SAP) for product managment, order processing and reporting. High quality standards for products.

Cons

Brady used to be very employee orientated. Great Benefits and an excellent record of hiring from within and recognition. That all changed over the past few years. Benefits have withered and the costs have skyrocketed. Company wide layoffs are a regular event and most people fear for their jobs most of the time.
