Pros

Diverse company with extremely high profits

Cons

ZERO Training. EXTREMELY BUREAUCRATIC! Never know what to do or who is in charge. No vision. May be sight specific. Meaningless Meeting after meeting. Have a Position called GATE Keeper that is a Road Block. Extremely difficult to get work done - try to blame it on safety but it is due to no known processes.
