Pros

Work-life balance if you take charge; reward hardworking people; very financially stable company; very low infighting; good people on the whole; very nice HQ building to work in; Some great mentors who see beyond Haworth's four walls; Good opportunities for advancement, but only if you're a man.

Cons

Management is risk-averse and some are incapable of spending money; Design team/products are slow to market and well behind competitors; general lack of innovation; company hasn't grown marketshare in like 20 years; lots of B-level talent that just fill seats; the open-plan office environment is so annoying because you can't have a private conversation or are bothered by others; Company has a lot of older folks that have been there 25+ years which stifles creativity, productivity, and career advancement; Low opportunities to travel and learn from external workshops/groups.
