Business Outlook
Pros
- Iconic American company - Tangible end product - easy to understand and feel ownership - Collaborative and supportive colleagues - Variety of career opportunities
Cons
- Lack of visionary leadership - no compelling plan (other than cutting overhead) for long term success and profitability - General employee morale - ~5yrs in restructuring or downsizing mode - Turnover - continuity and transfer of knowledge has become increasingly poor - Work life balance - used to be pretty good but respect for people has waned with mounting losses - Disjointed systems - lots of data quality issues and non-value-add reconciliations
