A tragic example of a bad example in Corporate America

Pros

The working level is unmatched in their care for clients and each other. The S-64 product is a unique one in the industry.

Cons

Management seems to want to inflate the company on long shot hopes, for a quick cash out. Hope is a poor strategy, and when it fails, it fails on the backs of the working level employees and existing clients. Senior management assumes no personal responsibility for failure.
