Pros

There are pockets of excellence and some groups are really trying to make the company into something special.

Cons

It is like a great ship lost in the doldrums with no rudder and no wind in the sails. What communication comes from corporate and even within the local site is confusing and often conflicting. What is 'right' one day becames a mistake the next. No matter how hard you try, someone is always going to change the rules and you will once again 'fail'. The Koch owned company has a great corporate culture on paper but very little of it is actually put into practice

Pros

Autonomy Remote work opportunities Decent Pay - only if you negotiate it

Cons

Zero training Poor leadership Lack of recognition Constant focus on “closing gaps” - you’ll spend all your time talking about less than 2% of revenue/profit Inconsistent bonus payouts with no metrics to understand how they arrive at a figure No clarity on how to achieve pay increases. Constant responsibilities added to your role that were not previously part of the role you were hired for.
