Pros
Good quality of people - personally and professionally - at the mid and lower management levels. Many employees get to know each other on a personal level and genuinely care and respect each other. This allows for good idea sharing and support amongst various groups. Delta is very good about caring for their employees. Generally a friendly environment, maybe too much so in some cases. Morale is not good. It is difficult to get fired. The headquarter location is good - Carmel, IN. When downsizing has occurred, severance packages seemed fair, although selection not as fair. Well known brands - Delta, Peerless (low end), Brizo (high end).
Cons
There has been a lot of recent change in upper management and related re-organization and employee turnover. Many individuals and groups are trying to figure out what they should be doing and learning how to do it. Not enough accountability amongst the various groups which leads to gaps in activities and finger pointing. Company is struggling in the down housing market and economy. Product/technology changes may not be well received in the market creating future further declines - risk. Customer pressures to reduce price and increasing product costs impacting financials. Need better metrics in place. Goals that are set are not necessarily adhered to.
