Pros

Pride in what the company manufactures, the blue collar jobs it provdes and the honor and loyalty the employees have.

Cons

An execssive amount of senior management at corporate. There are so many Directors in just IT alone we can't get anything done at the Plants.

Big company, small mentality

Pros

The only saving grace for this company are the hard working employees that keep it running despite the relentless focus on the bottom line.

Cons

Unfair salaries, Micro-managers at every turn, no vision for the future, lack of investment in current technologies, weak management that is more concerned with who you know instead of what you know.

Terrible Leadership

Pros

New President appears to have much better leadership skills and manages as more of a professional than the rest of his staff (inherited). He recently made a change at CFO position that was badly needed.

Cons

Leadership skills of executive and senior level managers is almost non-existent. Most are only concerned about their "turf" or they think the way to advance is to try to appease everyone. This company lacks central direction and a course forward. They also refuse to centralize functions which would eliminate headaches (IT) and create major cost savings and standardization. CMC does not appear to understand corporate risk at all for a Fortune 500 company. Instead they are stuck in the past and still operate like a much smaller company. Unfortunately, it will probably take a merger/buy out to change any of this.
