Business Outlook
Pros
The company will promote from within. Layoffs are pretty much unheard of so you will have job security.
Cons
The managers in the company have a culture of not rocking the boat and not reporting bad news up through channels. Most are promoted from lower ranks and the sole criteria seems to be keeping the boss above them happy. Bad news is never welcome and they are never encouraged to offer alternate ideas - lest they be accused of not being a "team player". Employees are afraid to offer new ideas and afraid to let managers know when they see problems - since there is a "kill the messenger" mentality. This really stifles new ideas and creativity and makes working there difficult at times.
