Business Outlook

Pros

Seem to have plenty of Revenue, especially at the corporate level

Cons

Low pay in comparison to other like companies in the industry, seem to put all emphasis at the corporate level and ignores the rest of the employees outside of that circle. Very concerned with putting out a "Big Shot" image of the company with corporate glamorization and totally ignoring Non corporate employees
