Pros

Global company with a rich history of product and heritage. Continue to strive for innovation.

Cons

Disappointed with what policies state and what really happens. Political. If you get in a great group of people it is really rewarding, if you get in the wrong tower of authority you may as well leave. Glass ceilings.

Pros

Starting salaries are very competitive. Above average job security.

Cons

Middle management is very ineffective. The company gets very caught up in management and organizational fads and slogans. Its Technical Organization uses a matrix structure that is very confusing. Middle management has created a culture that does not accept employee opinions that differ from their own. The company rarely removes poor performers, and this is very damaging to morale. Payroll, benefits, and recruiting functions have been outsourced to another company, and this has really hurt employee services.

Pros

People are passionate and really want the company to be successful. The leadership group seems to be highly ethical and cares about people.

Cons

Leadership has little consistent direction. The work hours are difficult - 12 hour days are the norm, not the exception.
