Pros

Private company - not all the ups and downs of a public corporation; good location in downtown, convenient to public transportation; good "fringe" benefits, including child care - unique for downtown employers

Cons

As a private company, financials are need-to-know, so you may never know if sales are down, leading to headcount reductions; expensive to park; Despite a leadership team" in Atlanta, the true management is Wichita, KS - can lead to bad decisions being made by people too far from the company

Pros

At this time the only reason would be a paycheck.

Cons

Lack of communication from upper managment. Inability of local management to make decisions. Employees do not have confidence in local or upper managment. Advancement (both pay and position) is determined by plant politics or "playing the game".

Opportunity for growth and personal betterment

Cons

There have been major changes in the last few years due to the company purchase by Koch Industries and the business model has been totally revamped and that has created confusion and policy change. There seems to still be a constant state of change....
