Pros

Looking forward in the next 3 year business cycle - not much. There are a few progressive mid-level leaders left but not many and their longevity is questionable.

Cons

Short term vision, uninspired leadership, a focus on form over substance, a sizable pendulum swing to minimize employee benefits, fairly opaque management decisions and process, new management fairly disinterested in the concept of of building/maintaining a corporate culture.

Pros

Culture was amazing before it was acquired by private equity.

Cons

The culture was great (before private equity), which made career advancement a game of social politics.
