Pros

-lots of opportunities to transition to new role within 18-24 months -team based work approach -exposure to many functions (engineering, IT, finance, logisitics) -can stay in Columbus to move around the company, but opportunities to relocate also -company is growing, so lots of opportunities in the future -easy access to management - mgmt welcomes opportunities to discuss career interests and -goals with even the most junior-level staff -very diverse workplace

Cons

-work / life balance is a challenge - many groups inadequately staffed -focus on six sigma is not clear - especially for some functions (IT, finance) -rewards for good performance are extremely inconsistent -company has lots of people who have never worked anywhere else - while this is a very positive sign, need more benchmarking for best practices - company had not made adequate investments in IT systems, etc., which will limit growth over the coming 20 years + -advancement in compensation is not competitive, when comparing to people who join the company after a few years of experience
