Pros

Professionally run parent company that unfortunately does not have have insight in how the business is run.

Cons

Make sure to read reviews from office workers. The company has been in a downward spiral but somehow the management team has survived. Unfortunately very few work for the business, general view is that exec team has mastered the art of politics to keep their jobs. This approach trickles down to many mid level managers. Toxic work environment in my opinion.
