      Your Manager matters a lot

      Pros

      Great benefits, stable company, if they downsize you they give you good severance packages.

      Cons

      The company overall is not bad, has great values, but it all depends on what kind of a manager you have. If you have a bad manager, none of those values matter because you are treated really bad and no one will do anything in the fear of retaliation. Most of the old leaders are gone, who used to care about their employees. Now at least 50% of the leaders only care about themselves and doesn't support their team. It's a shame..:-(

      Excellent financial standing, needs change in organizational mindset

      Pros

      Excellent benefits, financially stable organization due to nature of product line.

      Cons

      Very hesitant (to completely resistant) to benchmark with industry, general opinion is that management positions are filled by "time in" rather than expertise. Progress/change is an illusion presented to management rather than actual/meaningful progress.

      Pros

      Great pay and opportunity to make extra money with overtime

      Cons

      Management doesn't listen to a word from the employees. You loose faith and trust very quickly in the staff your with. If you don't mind throwing your morals and dignity away, then this is a place for you!
