Pros

Inward investment from parent company is starting to pay dividends. Turnaround in sales performance, customer retention, staff morale all better. A real opportunity to grow due to the investment in IT infrastructure from the parent means there is a real drive for people to push boundaries in what we do.

Cons

Project management needs to improve, communication between departments on requirements and scoping is not always the best. Stop the rot with the pay freezes. Long term staff have put in an awful lot over the last 3 years to help Formica recover and have accepted remuneration was on hold. Things are looking up, don't forget that fundamentally, we come to work to be paid for our skills, pay us well and keep reaping the benefits.

Pros

Easy job on day to day tasks. But that’s only because management is severely lacking. Decent pay, company vehicle, typical benefits (health care, 401k, etc.)

Cons

Management structure with No direction, No focus or a real understanding of what influences end user buying decisions. They don’t even perform a basic market swat analysis to understand what they could be doing better. Why? Because we invented this stuff, and have been doing it for 110+ years do we know it all. Well then, enjoy your 30% market share there buddy.
