Pros

Some of the best coworkers I have ever worked with.

Cons

Management is terrible as well as HR. There is a lot of favoritism and discrimination. Employees are treated poorly and management is treated like royalty. For the employee appreciation day management gets good food and beer and everyone else gets hot dogs. Absolutely ridiculous. They are on a hiring freeze and wont hire temps to full time even though they say you can apply after 4 months.

Good Opportunities but...

Pros

There are a lot of opportunities for growth in the company's many business units. They are a manufacturer of very good quality products, usually market leaders.

Cons

Lack of diversity, although they are revisiting the recruiting practices to get better, they haven't done much to improve the opportunities for us few minorities already in the company. Cookie-cutter, predictably terrible, inexperienced 'kids' put into high level management positions just because they have an MBA from a school with a recognizable name. There are lots of opportunities for growth, but a real lack of career planning or development for employees to attain the opportunities- especially if you are a remote employee (out of sight, out of mind). Their cheapness keeps them from obtaining high quality employees across functional areas and investing in innovative technologies across their businesses. Pay is way below average for the workloads/titles.
