Business Outlook

Pros

Decent facilities, certain type of brand recognition, occasionally good family events around Christmas. The work force in the ranks are the biggest pros, but that mostly goes unnoticed by management.

Cons

The culture used to be good but eroded to one of back-biting and intentional misinformation from management to the employees. It was like war was waged on the employees 5+ years ago and it's been all about corporate politics, clock-watching, morale problems and layoffs ever since, pure products of bad leadership.
