Business Outlook
Pros
-You're working with a historic brand, so you have a sense of pride when you go in each morning. -The work environment is very friendly. Everyone is warm and nurturing. Always there to lend a helping hand. -Very good work-life balance. There's a company gym. No long hours. - Good communication and synergy between the departments. Good team-building.
Cons
- There was high turnover due to the bankruptcy. Lots of layoffs and no job security. - Constant change of upper mgmt led to office politics playing a big role in who gets promoted, let go, etc. - Company was a bit slow to adapt to evolving technology. - Company goals and initiatives were too short-sighted at times. Went for immediate results and not the big picture.
