Pros

It's a job. Steady paycheck Minimal work required. Heavily favors African Americans

Cons

Employees rewarded only for length of employment No place for new ideas Innovation is a word in the dictionary. Risk takers and new ideas are mired in bureaucracy. Want to get an idea contributed? Prepare a business case that only a CFO can understand in 200 pages or more. Don't forget the carbon paper. Employees provided with outdated, underpowered technology secured by Gestapo - like security. Pay is nothing special. Senior management concerned about their own stock rewards and won't make any deciions without first consulting their stock culture. Management should be put out to pasture, they retire when they get too I'll and stay past retirement age. Want office supplies? typical request to fulfill takes 3 months for anything other than a paper clip. Did I mention bureacracy? Lots of big titles, no support staff. This results in nothing ever getting done. Marketing is a bad word. Suppression of employee enthusiasm HR incompetent with too much control in org. Ever see an HR chief office next to CEOs? No investment in marketing, new product debelopment,employee training. Employees have no personality.
