Pros

Great salary! Improved in the area of supporting managersand allowing them to be innovative and try new things to growing customer revenue.

Cons

Needs to continue to try and standardize and leverage the go to market strategy of the different regions. It's great to have freedom in how to execute the value proposition, but it also leads to some drastically different ways of conducting business that makes us look like we are all on a different page when dealing with a customer that might have multiple locations. There are some key people in leadership, including HR that that have some serious integrity issues, that most likely will never be corrected because they have too much annonymity to do as they please.
