Business Outlook
Pros
Very little pressure, relaxed environment, no hard deadlines. Work place is friendly and mor like a university atmosphere then the typical pressure cooker atmosphere.
Cons
Newly promoted management are not provided tools or training to make them effective. Management is promoted from within and seems to be based on length of sevice only and not capability. Overall, management could be much better. Currently, management skills most be learned on the job. Company assumes that the longer a manager or director is in a position the more quailified they are. This of course is not true.
